Derek Carr will remain as the starting quarterback for the New Orleans Saints in 2025 following a recent salary restructuring that transforms a significant portion of his pay into a signing bonus. With a guaranteed salary of $40 million, this move illustrates the Saints' commitment to Carr as their QB1 despite a disappointing offensive performance last season. The team faced numerous health issues impacting their roster, but with Carr at the helm, they aim to stabilize their offense and re-establish connections with key playmakers like Chris Olave, Alvin Kamara, and Rashid Shaheed.
