Source: Derek Carr expected to start for New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr, who cleared concussion protocol and was removed from the injury report, is expected to start Sunday vs. the Carolina Panthers, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Saturday night.

"I have felt better, but I'm doing great, that's for sure," Carr said in a pool report distributed to the media by the team on Friday.

Carr was placed into concussion protocol in the fourth quarter of last Sunday's loss to the Detroit Lions, the second time he had gone into protocol in a month.
