Raiders QB Derek Carr (back) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice. He'll be ready to go for this weekend's game vs. New Orleans.

Saints QB Derek Carr (concussion) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 12 injury report. He’ll start Sunday’s game vs. the Falcons but is only in play in 2-QB and Superflex fantasy leagues.

Saints QB Derek Carr (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll be under center this weekend. Carr sits 19th in our Week 12 QB rankings in a matchup against Atlanta's 29th-ranked QB defense.

Saints QB Derek Carr remains in the concussion protocol. The news comes straight from HC Dennis Allen. New Orleans doesn’t play until Sunday, so there’s time for Carr to get cleared coming off the bye week. For now, though, there’s at least a chance we'll see more of Jameis Winston. He’s a low-dollar speculative add for superflex managers seeking a short-term boost.

Saints HC Dennis Allen said Monday that QB Derek Carr's shoulder "checked out fine." He's in the concussion protocol, but it sounds like he'll be available coming off the Week 11 bye. Allen also said that he's not currently considering a move to QB Jameis Winston. We'll see if that changes during a week of film watching. But, for now, we should assume that it'll be Carr under center vs. the Falcons in Week 12.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Saints QB Derek Carr sprained the AC joint in his throwing shoulder in Sunday's loss to the Vikings. He calls it a similar injury to Carr's previous shoulder issue and "might actually be" and aggravation of that previous injury. It's still not expected to be serious. And the Week 11 bye seems likely to put Carr on track to miss no further time. Frankly, we can't help but wonder if it would help WR Chris Olave's fantasy outlook if Carr did miss some time. We'll check back in on the New Orleans QB situation after the bye.
