At the beginning of April, it was reported that Derek Carr, quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, suffered a shoulder injury that might require surgery and could jeopardize his participation in the 2025 NFL season. However, there have been no further updates on the matter.
After this news about the Saints surfaced, speculation began that New Orleans could be a top candidate to select Shedeur Sanders from the Colorado Buffaloes with the 9th overall pick in the NFL Draft. In fact, betting markets currently list Shedeur as a future Saints player – but it seems the team isn’t fully convinced yet.

The Saints Are Hopeful for Derek Carr’s Return
At a press conference, Saints general manager Mickey Loomis gave a brief statement regarding Derek Carr’s situation.
“He has a shoulder issue,” said Loomis. “We hope to have a resolution and more clarity soon. And when we do, I’ll let you know. For now, I don’t have anything else to say about Derek.”
Loomis also spoke about how the Saints will approach the draft, though he gave no hint as to whether the team plans to draft a quarterback – something that will only be revealed on Thursday in Green Bay.
“I don’t think our approach to the draft is any different from any other year,” said the veteran GM. “We’re looking for as many good players, great players, as we can find. This year, we’re fortunate to have multiple picks in the first four rounds, and that excites us because I believe this draft has depth that can help us strengthen the roster.”
For now, the uncertainty remains about what decision the Saints will make. In 2024, Carr played in 10 games before suffering a fracture in his left hand. Over the season, he totaled 2,145 passing yards, 15 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions.
The draft will be intriguing in terms of where Shedeur Sanders ends up – but if the Saints pass on him, the quarterback could slip all the way to the second round, which would be a shocking outcome for Shedeur.

NFL Preseason Week 3 Game Recap: New York Giants 42, New England Patriots 10
New York’s preseason finale turned into a showcase for depth, as the Giants cruised past New England 42-10. Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart delivered a couple of big-time throws, including a 50-yard strike and a red-zone score, before exiting after a first-quarter hit. The team later confirmed he cleared concussion protocol. With Russell Wilson inactive, Dart opened the game and completed 6-of-12 passes for 81 yards. His longest completion — a deep connection with Gunner Olszewski — highlighted his arm talent, while a fumble on a scramble reminded observers of his still-developing decision-making. Running back Cam Skattebo logged his first preseason snaps after missing extended time in camp, notching three carries for 12 yards in a short opening stint.

NFL Preseason Week 3 Game Recap: Pittsburgh Steelers 19, Carolina Panthers 10
Pittsburgh closed out its preseason slate with a 19-10 win over Carolina, powered by efficient quarterback play and a perfect night from rookie kicker Ben Sauls. But the biggest headline from the night wasn’t about production — it was about availability. First-round pick Derrick Harmon went down early with a non-contact knee injury and didn’t return, casting immediate doubt over his status for the regular season. The 21st overall pick had flashed promise throughout camp, and his absence would leave a significant hole on the Steelers’ defensive front. Skylar Thompson was sharp in relief of Mason Rudolph, completing 11 of his 13 passes and delivering the night’s first touchdown throw — a 24-yard strike to Lance McCutcheon. He also connected deep with Scotty Miller, who led all players in receiving yards (82). Carolina, meanwhile, rested nearly all key contributors. PFF's […]
