Overview
- NFL Network insiders report Carr is throwing fully with no current shoulder limitations after rehabbing from a 2025 labral tear and rotator-cuff damage.
- He is not actively pursuing a comeback but would consider unretiring for 2026 if the situation and coaching staff meet his preferences.
- Multiple teams performed due diligence during the injury-heavy 2025 season, including the Bengals contacting him after Joe Burrow’s turf toe injury.
- New Orleans still holds Carr’s contractual rights, and reporting indicates the Saints would likely seek reasonable compensation in any trade.
- Speculation highlights a potential Raiders fit, with Klint Kubiak expected to become head coach and Las Vegas projected to draft Fernando Mendoza, which could make Carr a short-term bridge option.
