Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will be 31 years old by the time the 2022 NFL season kicks off. What’s scary is that he might be entering his prime.

Since 2014, Derek Carr has been a pivotal player for the Silver and Black. After years of failed experiments and draft busts, Carr helped to stabilize the quarterback position for the Raiders. A three-time Pro Bowler, Carr has eclipsed several of the organization’s passing records en route to a polarizing career.

Even the NFL media recognizes how dynamic Carr’s effect has been on the fan base.

Interestingly enough, it does appear that Carr might be entering his physical prime in 2022. Quite the proposition considering how much No. 4 has already accomplished individually. We have all watched as he has re-wrote the Raiders record book, and led the team to some improbable victories, but are his best days still in front of him?

Let’s take a closer look at what could end up being Carr’s best season yet as he enters another phase of his career.
