Update: #Saints QB Derek Carr tells media that he suffered 3 different rib fractures this year, two of which that nobody even knew about until he told reporters.

"The other two, no one even knew I played through them."

If the Saints knew and did not report them on the injury report, they would get in trouble.

He's such a fricking retard it hurts. I thought about that when WWL replayed his fricking dreadful circle back interview answers.

200 yards passing at home vs the 1-12 cats 31st in points allowed. I would bench him for a roll of wet toilet paper.

He likes playing the fake hero/martyr card. He is an absolute loser in every sense.

We sucked, no doubt, but Carolina is #3 in passing D and #3 in total D

Not entirely his fault. Carmichael needs to join him too and be relieved of his play calling duties. There are times where Carr just doesn't have anywhere to thrown the ball due to bad play designs or just calling the wrong play at the wrong time.

One season, John Abraham of the Falcons, launched helmet first into Drew Brees’ knee.

Brees wore a brace most of the season. Brees didn’t complain or discuss the obvious injury. He was not an injury drama queen.

Brees was a real iron man playing through injuries and maintained a high level of play through any myriad of afflictions.

You don’t appreciate what you have until it’s gone.

Carr is just so incredibly tough. We are so fortunate to have such a warrior. Really his only flaw is being a bad quarterback and teammate.

Let's hope Goodell doesn't take away our top ten draft pick

I mean, if he has rib issues that only he knows about, how does the team know?

That is the question. When he says "No one" he can't literally mean "no one".

A doctor presumably told him he had 3 cracked ribs. If it was a team doctor, the team knows.

If he went to an independent doctor and they told him and he never told the Saints (that seems unlikely) then ok.

He self-diagnosed. The damn maniac.

Saints have listed his other injuries, so not sure why they'd hide ribs

Couple reasons. Its not a good look when you’re playing a qb with broken ribs especially when you have a highly paid backup qb. Two when the other team knows the starting qb has broken ribs- they most likely will rush the passer even more and force him to make certain throws.
