"He does have an issue with his shoulder," Loomis told reporters in a pre-draft news conference. "We're hoping to get some resolution, [some] clarity on that in the near future. And when we do, I'll report back to you. Otherwise, I don't have anything more to state about Derek."

The former longtime Raiders quarterback signed with the Saints two seasons ago after he used his no-trade clause to force the Raiders to release him. Now it's interesting that his status could have implications for the Raiders 2025 draft plans.

The New Orleans Saints won't take Derek Carr's shoulder injury into consideration when they make their 2025 NFL Draft selection, general manager Mickey Loomis said Wednesday.
