Raiders' coaching staff want quarterback Derek Carr to relax
Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has a few different reasons for his struggles but the biggest one is his need to relax, according to the coaching staff.
What It Means:
Carr has thrown five interceptions in the last three games, and one reason for it is his lack of poise in the pocket. The coaches believe Carr is pressing too much and needs to chill. Head coach Jon Gruden and offensive coordinator Greg Olsen think Carr has the talent but tries to do too much at times. The Raiders will look to get back on the winning track this Sunday as they face the Seattle Seahawks in London.
Our models project Carr as the 22nd-best fantasy quarterback for Week 6 with 16.9 FanDuel points.
