Report: Saints QB Derek Carr Out With Oblique Injury

The Saints will potentially be without their starting quarterback for the next few games.

NFL Network reports that an MRI confirmed that New Orleans QB Derek Carr suffered an oblique injury in Monday night's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

There is no timetable on his return to the field, with oblique injuries often leading to multi-week absences.

If Carr is unable to play, the Saints would turn to second-year backup Jake Haener or rookie Spencer Rattler to start behind center.

Carr is completing 70.3-percent of his passes for 989 yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions this season.
