News: 6 days agoCarr started the Saints' 16-14 preseason win over the Cardinals on Saturday night and completed two of six passes for 12 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions.

Spin: Carr played on the Saints' first two possessions and counted a 10-yard completion to Chris Olave on his second pass attempt as the highlight of his short night. The veteran signal-caller is locked in as New Orleans' top quarterback heading into his second season with the franchise, although a lackluster campaign could put his long-term future with the team into question.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Carr is back for his second season as the Saints' starting QB. The 33-year-old did his usual bit, soaking up plenty of passing volume (he finished 13th or better in passing yardage and TDs for the fourth straight season) but not producing as a rusher (career-low 40 rush yards and zero TDs for the third straight season). The limited rushing led to a 16th-place finish in total fantasy points (26th in PPG) and he's still yet to produce a top-10 fantasy campign in his career. Carr's supporting cast isn't overly impressive outside of Chris Olave and Alvin Kamara, so a big leap forward in passing production is unlikely. He's a low-ceiling QB2.
