Carr, who exited Sunday's game against the Packers due to a right shoulder injury, is set to undergo additional testing at a Green Bay-area hospital, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carr completed 13 of 18 pass attempts for 103 yards and a touchdown before exiting in the third quarter shortly after being sacked by the Packers' Rashan Gary. The veteran quarterback already underwent X-rays at the stadium, but he'll now get a more thorough evaluation at the hospital as the Saints look to examine him for internal injuries. Carr's status for the Saints' Week 4 contest against the Buccaneers may not be established for a few more days, but Jameis Winston would likely be in line for the start if Carr is unable to play next weekend.

Carr (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's contest at Green Bay, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carr made an early exit from this Week 3 contest after a Rashan Gary sack in the third quarter. Considering Carr has been ruled out for the rest of the game, Jameis Winston will direct the Saints offense for as long as the former is sidelined.

Carr suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's game in Green Bay, Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carr departed early in the third quarter after taking a sack from Packers pass rusher Rashan Gary. After a visit to the sideline tent and then the locker room, Carr is tending to a shoulder issue. If he's unable to return, he'll finish Week 3 action with 103 yards and one touchdown on 13-for-18 passing. Jameis Winston will lead the Saints offense in Carr's stead.

Carr exited Sunday's game at Green Bay due to an undisclosed injury, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carr took a seven-yard sack via Packers pass rusher Rashan Gary early in the third quarter and remained on the turf for a spell before making his way to the sideline tent. Not long after that, Carr was escorted to the locker room. The nature of his injury isn't known, but Jameis Winston will direct the Saints offense as long as Carr is out.

Carr completed 21 of 36 passes for 228 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Monday's 20-17 win over the Panthers. He also had minus-4 rushing yards on three attempts.
EDGE Analysis
Carr didn't fare well in his introduction to the low-scoring Saints-Panthers rivalry, but he ultimately did enough to lead his team to victory. He was picked off in the second quarter and failed to produce a touchdown on the team's two first-half trips into the red zone, but Carr's 42-yard pass to Chris Olave helped set up Tony Jones' go-ahead, two-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Carr added a 45-yard pass to Rashid Shaheed to set up another two-yard Jones rushing touchdown in the fourth. New Orleans' prized free-agent acquisition has one touchdown versus two interceptions through two games with his new team, but Carr has led the Saints to a 2-0 start heading into a Week 3 trip to Green Bay.

Carr completed 23 of 33 passes for 305 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Carr was efficient in his Saints debut while distributing the ball to Michael Thomas, Rashid Shaheed and Chris Olave. He averaged 9.2 yards per attempt and particularly excelled while pushing the ball down the field, as he completed five passes of more than 20 yards. Carr still came away with only one touchdown to show for his efforts, and for both the team and his fantasy production he'll need to find a way to punch the ball into the end zone more regularly. In the short term, he'll turn his attention to a Week 2 matchup against the Panthers.

Carr and several other starters are unlikely to play in Sunday's preseason game against Houston, Ross Jackson of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carr will be held out for a second straight week, after completing six of eight passes for 70 yard and a touchdown in the Saints' preseason opener. He won't have RB Alvin Kamara available for the first three weeks of the regular season, but WRs Chris Olave and Michael Thomas and TE Juwan Johnson are all healthy heading into a Week 1 home game against Tennessee, and even No. 3 WR Rashid Shaheed (groin) recently returned to practice and now has two weeks to ramp up.

Carr is among the Saints' starting offensive players who are unlikely to suit up for Sunday's preseason tilt versus the Chargers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Underhill, starting wide receivers Chris Olave, Michael Thomas and Rashid Shaheed (groin), along with tight ends Juwan Johnson and Taysom Hill, are all expected to sit out as well. Wideout Tre'Quan Smith (groin) and tight end Jimmy Graham (illness) also appear unlikely to play. As a result, the majority of New Orleans' second-team offensive players should be in line to start against the Chargers, including WRs A.T. Perry, Keith Kirkwood and Bryan Edwards and TE Foster Moreau. Backup quarterback Jameis Winston is also slated to start ahead of rookie quarterback Jake Haener, according to New Orleans team reporter Erin Summers. Carr should still be considered the unquestioned starter for the Saints after he inked a four-year, $150 million contract with the team in March.

Carr completed six of eight passes for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-24 preseason win over the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Carr impressed in his first action as a Saint, leading the team on a 12-play, 80-yard touchdown drive to begin the game. The signal-caller connected with Juwan Johnson, Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas prior to finding Keith Kirkwood on a four-yard score to cap that series. With that serving as Carr's only involvement of the day, Jameis Winston and Jake Haener split quarterback duties afterward.

Carr and the rest of the Saints' starters are expected to play in Sunday's preseason opener against the Chiefs, Luke Johnson of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Dennis Allen said the team plans to play Carr and other starters for part of Sunday's game before reevaluating whether they should take the field in the other two preseason contests. Carr will be making his highly anticipated Saints debut after signing a four-year, $150 million contract with New Orleans as a free agent in the offseason.
