Will Derek Carr return to the National Football League in 2026?

The former New Orleans Saints starting quarterback has made it clear that he’s open to coming back for the right opportunity. He specifically talked about the idea of coming back to join a Super Bowl contender. While this is the case, Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported on Saturday that New Orleans hasn’t heard from teams with interest in him yet.

“Earlier this month, quarterback Derek Carr made it clear that he’d end his one-year retirement to play for a Super Bowl contender,” Florio wrote. “If a team is interested in Carr, however, that team has yet to commence the process of acquiring his contractual rights. Carr remains on the Saints’ reserve-retired list. Any team that wants him will have to work out a trade with the Saints.

The Saints should be hoping a team gets involved
