Derek Carr’s Monday night matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs quickly went from bad to worse.
The Saints trailed the Chiefs 23-13 midway through the fourth quarter at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
With the visitors facing 4th-and-8 at the Chiefs’ 41, Kansas City executed a perfect blitz that caught Carr off guard. The Saints QB managed to get rid of the football to avoid a sack, but still took a massive hit from Chiefs safety Chamarri Conner.
Carr hobbled his way to the Saints’ sideline and eventually made his way to the locker room. Carr is dealing with an oblique injury, per the team. Second-year QB Jake Haener replaced Carr for the rest of the game.
