Saints sticking with Derek Carr as QB1, says GM Mickey Loomis

Indianapolis – New Orleans of Saints General Manager Mickey Lomes indicated that the team will adhere to it Derek Car As the team leader in 2025.
Lomes, who sat with the American Football Association correspondents on Wednesday, said on Wednesday that the saints were “excited.”
“I think we feel that we have a man we can win,” said Lomes.
The saints, who were in the process of evaluating their list in front of the Free Agency, gave a more solid answer to Carle than the preliminary press conference of Killen Moore two weeks ago. Moore said at the time that he had a huge amount of respect for Kar and that Car was “a big player at the beginning in this league”, but he did not say whether he would start in the saints in 2025.
Moore, who also met the media on Wednesday in Indianapolis, praised the ability to handle Car, and said that Car clips were often used in teaching the concept of teams throughout the league.
Moore said on Wednesday: “We feel lucky because Derek is here, which is the experience he enjoys. He is a great player in this league,” Moore said on Wednesday.
Lomis admitted that the saints are expected to be narrow against the maximum with a free agency just two weeks, but he still believes the team will be active in the Free Agency. Saints are expected to be largely at the maximum, with the maximum cost of $ 51.4 million from Carr as an important obstacle to overcoming it.
The saints can liberate approximately $ 31 million in the maximum area this year by restructuring the Car contract. Full restructuring will make the salary number of Kar 2026 about $ 69 million in the last year of his deal.
“Yes, it’s tight,” Le Lomes said about the flexibility of the cover. “There is no secret to that, and it is a large number, so we hope we are able to maneuver.”
