Derek Carr tells Raiders to release him

NFL quarterback Derek Carr has officially told his current team, the Las Vegas Raiders that he will not accept any trade and would like to be released from the organization. Derek is one of the better quarterbacks in this league as he has been a consistent top player in this league for over a decade, with the Raiders being Carr late in the season it was expected that the Carr and the Raiders organization were likely to move on.

        With the Raiders organization having some turnover over the last season, this new regime seemingly wants their own quarterback that they drafted and or traded for, with Carr being at the Raiders for a decade it wasn’t far fetched that Las Vegas could possibly move on from the star quarterback. 

        One big talking point this offseason has been if superstar wide receiver Davante Adams will request a trade or will he stay with the organization, Adams originally went to the Raiders because of his on and off the field relationship with Carr but with the quarterback seemingly out of the building it’s been speculated that Adams could want out too. 

Derek Carr has been linked to a multitude of teams that are a quarterback away like the New York Jets, Carolina Panthers, Indianapolis Colts and many others. Meanwhile the Raiders have been linked to many potential free agents and quarterbacks on the trade block like Jimmy Garrappalo, Aaron Rodgers and once was with Tom Brady before he retired.
