Are the Las Vegas Raiders ‘all-in’ on quarterback Derek Carr?
By Brad Weiss
Derek Carr made it known he wants to be a member of the Raiders franchise for life but is the franchise all-in on him?
For the last seven seasons, Derek Carr has been the starting quarterback for the Raiders franchise, and there has certainly been a fair share of ups and downs. His record as the starter has been atrocious, but all of that does not fall on his shoulders, as he has played on some very bad teams.
Between so many head coaches, coordinators, teammates, and bad defenses, Carr has been given a tough hand on plenty of occasions. When there has been consistency, he has thrived, like he did in 2016, and like he has since Jon Gruden returned to the organization.
Still, many feel it is time for the franchise to move on from him, something that he has been staunchly against. In fact, on Tuesday, Carr stated he would likely retire before playing for another franchise, showing that he is ‘all-in’ when it comes to the Raiders.
However, are the Raiders all in on him?
