New Derek Carr drama echoes Raiders departure

When quarterback Derek Carr left the Las Vegas Raiders in 2023, he exited as one of the most talented but polarizing players in franchise history.

Some fans look fondly on Carr’s tenure, being the franchise quarterback the team had not had since Rich Gannon and putting on a spectacular season in 2016. Others might look more at the inconsistency that occurred in later seasons, with the way Carr left the franchise leaving a bad taste in their mouths. For Raider Nation, it almost feels as though there is no middle ground when it comes to the quarterback.
