After losing his first 10 games as a rookie, Carr has been a big part of the turnaround that has the Raiders in the playoffs for the first time since 2002. I’m very disappointed in myself because it was my guy who got him.”Ĭarr had led a revival in Oakland since arriving as a second-round pick in 2014. The injury changed the mood at the Coliseum from celebratory to depressed as thoughts turned from the Raiders (12-3) possibly clinching the division with one more win or a Kansas City loss to wondering if an opportunity for a possible Super Bowl run was now lost. “Most athletes have a pretty good idea something has gone on with their body.” “As soon as I got out there, he said, ‘I think it’s broken,’” Del Rio said. He was then taken away on a cart for X-rays which showed the break. With the crowd chanting “M-V-P! M-V-P!” Carr limped off the field without putting any pressure on his right leg. Carr stayed on the ground for several minutes in pain as trainers came out to treat him.

Carr got hurt with Oakland leading 33-14 early in the fourth quarter when he was sacked by Trent Cole.
