Derek Carr has found a new home … the former Raiders quarterback is signing with the New Orleans Saints after spending the past nine seasons with Oakland/Las Vegas.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport broke the news Monday morning … saying the Saints are giving the 31-year-old NFL veteran a new, four-year deal.
Carr confirmed the news in a tweet — sharing a video of a raucous scene at the Superdome, while writing, “Who dat.”
Carr — a four-time Pro Bowler — was released by the Raiders last month after being benched at the end of the season. The signal-caller finished his Raiders career with a 63-79 record.
Carr had flirted with several teams following his release — including the New York Jets — but ultimately landed with the Saints … who Rapoport reported Monday were always the favorite for the QB.
Carr will be the Saints’ latest attempt to replace Drew Brees … since the future Hall of Famer’s retirement, they’ve tried combinations of Jameis Winston, Andy Dalton and Taysom Hill without much success.
