Raiders could part with Derek Carr as team’s QB in 2022

For no team in the NFL is it an achievement to have reached the postseason, even for those that are projected to have worse teams, because anything can happen on the field. Raiders should not feel comfortable with the playoffs and they are already thinking about releasing pieces like Derek Carr.

It is no secret to anyone that Derek Carr’s intention is to keep Rich Bisaccia as the head coach for the following season, but that decision will not be made by the QB, but by owner Mark Davis, who is looking for another type of coach for the team.

Rich Bisaccia took over as interim head coach following the scandal of Jon Gruden and they had to overcome situations like that of Henry Ruggs III, who is currently in legal proceedings and the Raiders thanked him.

Despite all the potholes they encountered, the Raiders had the mentality to stay well in order to make it to the postseason and they did. Players began to warm up to Rich Bisaccia and especially Derek Carr, who is considering his future in Las Vegas without him..

Will the Raiders have to look for a general manager, a head coach and also a QB if Derek Carr leaves?

Mark Davis will start interviewing for the general manager job, first, and then head coach, and after all that bullshit, Derek Carr will decide whether to continue with the Raiders or find another team.

But things are not that simple, although for the 2022 season the NFL increased the salary cap, Derek Carr would have to find a team that has $19.8 million available, which he earned on his last contract. and possibly a little more than this, which is not easy for teams.

One of the most latent possibilities is that there may be an exchange of players with a team. Derek Carr is not Aaron Rodgers and is possibly a line below the best players, but he is a reliable QB and capable of leading a team to the postseason and more.

Mark Davies could be interested in QB like Russell Wilson, who seems to have his days numbered as Seahawks quarterback or listen to the proposals of teams such as Texans, who are looking for a QB job that Derek Carr could fill.
