Derek Carr has made his presence felt right out of the gate with the Saints, and from the sound of it, teammates are buying stock in their new signal-caller.

But while having a belief that your new quarterback is the “right” choice to lead the team is one thing, New Orleans tight end Juwan Johnson had no problem turbo-charging the hype surrounding Carr.
While speaking with SiriusXM NFL Radio, Johnson tossed out the highest praise a Saints quarterback can receive: a comparison to former NFL star Drew Brees.

“He’s giving more of a feel — because he’s an older guy — he’s giving me a lot of Drew [Brees]. Going into the huddle, commanding the huddle, the guys gravitating to him. These are things I’ve seen how Drew conducted the huddle, how Drew conducted the offense and things like that. It’s giving me similar feels, and so I’m really excited about what Derek has and how he’s going to move this offense,” Johnson said.

Carr was made a priority immediately by the Saints this past offseason, and the former Raiders quarterback steps into a situation filled with a lot of talent spread across the offense. Carr played in 142 games for the Raiders since 2014, throwing for 35,222 yards, 217 touchdowns and 99 interceptions.
