Derek Carr returns to football in new role three months after New Orleans Saints QB retired at age 34
Derek Carr is back involved with the NFL, only three months removed from his shocking retirement from football as part of YouTube 's inaugural league broadcast in a few weeks. The former New Orleans Saints quarterback will be an in-studio analyst for the second game of the NFL season between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers. Carr will be based in California for the game, and not in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where the NFL has journeyed for the second straight year. The 34-year-old officially retired on May 10 due to a labral tear and 'significant degenerative changes to his rotator cuff.' Playing through the injury and surgery were also considered as options for the longtime NFL quarterback before he decided to step away from his playing career. Also in the Los Angeles-based studio for pre-game analysis will be former NFLers Brandon Marhsall and Tyrann Mathieu, as well as Peter Overzet. In the booth for Chargers-Chiefs will be Rich Eisen on play-by-play commentary, alongside former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner as the game analyst. Terry McAulay will be the rules analyst, with Rene Giraldo and Edgar Lopez handling the Spanish commentary. On the sidelines for the game will be YouTube creator Deestroying, combining with the website that helped make him famous in this venture into the NFL, as well as commentator Stacey Dales. Kay Adams and Cam Newton will be the lead analysts to make the trek to Brazil for pregame and postgame talk. Dales and Deestroying will also join the duo after the AFC West battle wraps up. The game will kick off on Sept. 5 at 8 pm with no subscription required. It will also be available on YouTube TV in the United States. Carr played for 11 seasons in the NFL, with his first nine coming with the Raiders before signing with the Saints.
