Report: Derek Carr could return for the right situation

Derek Carr, who retired after the 2024 NFL season to avoid shoulder surgery, might be considering a return to the league. After spending a year rehabilitating his right shoulder, Carr reportedly has no remaining limitations and is throwing regularly. Teams have shown interest in his potential comeback, with the possibility hinging on finding the right situation and coaching staff. While the New Orleans Saints still hold Carr's rights, Tyler Shough has emerged as their starting quarterback, suggesting a trade might be necessary for Carr's return. Whether such a situation will materialize by 2026 remains uncertain.
