Derek Carr shares heartbreaking news of his wife’s miscarriage and calls out the media over injury reports

In a heartbreaking revelation, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr opened up about a deeply personal tragedy. While preparing for a doctor’s visit regarding his own shoulder injury, Carr had to rush his wife, Heather, to the emergency room after she suffered a miscarriage. The Carr family, already blessed with four children, now mourns the loss of a fifth.

Derek Carr’s heart-wrenching revelation has left many in the NFL community and beyond reeling with emotion. The Saints quarterback, in a raw moment of vulnerability, shared that while he had been scheduled to see a doctor for his own shoulder injury, the plans quickly changed. His wife, Heather, suffered a miscarriage, and they had to rush to the hospital immediately. This deeply personal revelation came with an emotional statement from Carr, who shared, "We don't just have four babies, we have five. One is in heaven. We'll get to meet the other one when we get to heaven." His openness about the situation has struck an emotional chord with many, especially given the intensity of the moment.

Since news of Derek Carr’s injury broke, he had not publicly addressed the situation until Sunday, April 27, when he spoke at a church service for Church LV.

“I really hate that I have to bring this up, but I feel like I need to,” Carr told the congregation. “Yes, I have a shoulder injury, regardless of what ESPN or some lady on a podcast may think. I have the MRI to back it up. The team is fully aware, and we’ve been in constant communication. Everything’s fine, we’re working through it, and we’ll keep moving forward. Is that okay? I’ve had to deal with people lying about me and spreading all sorts of things. I’m just asking, Lord, why do I have to keep dealing with this nonsense?”

Despite these challenges, Carr has shown immense strength, balancing his emotional grief with the physical demands of his football career. His faith and commitment to his family have been guiding forces through this tumultuous time. Although his own health is a concern, his focus on supporting Heather and their children speaks volumes about his character.

That's an atrocity that I wish on no one. Like Rez, this hits home and I feel horrible for the Carr family.

I don't want him back in Louisiana.

If Derek Carr wants fans to like him, he should not expect a $40 million payday after a 5-12 record and a season ended by a bonehead play. If Derek Carr wants fans to like him, he should be honest and upfront about his injuries and not hype himself up while saving disappointment for his few remaining fans who defended him. I understand he's a businessman and he got his bag or whatever, but business decisions don't win popularity contests and a businessman accepts that. If all that matters to him is whats in the bible not social media, why is he reviewing a Rolls Royce on social media? Everything that can be said about it is already in the bible, and it says to to spend that money helping people not on ridiculous cars and eye liner. This waah waah social media is bad crap is all fine and good for someone who is out reading to blind children or whatever, but Carr is on Youtube reviewing Rolls Royces he bought with dollars exracted directly from fans disappointment for his lousy performances and lack of leadership. There is no part of the bible that says get your bag, give back nothing, and always ask for more. Derek Carr doesn't believe one word in the bible, he just thinks he is equivalent to the main character.

I hope we hold Carr on the roster until late August 2026 with no further pay except his vet minimum salary, never let him even see the practice field, then cut him when no other team needs a QB.

At least we aren't paying Deshaun Watson!

Forsakes his team and then chastises us from the pulpit. This guy is a trip.

100% time to move forward with Messrs. Shough and Rattler.

I feel for the Carr family having to go through that.

It also doesn't and shouldn't reset the context of everything that has transpired.

With 3 qb’s within 3 years of being drafted, I would assume this means Carr is a post June 1st cut. I’m not sure if this is correct, but I’ve see it would save roughly 2 million against the cap. If he is sitting anyway, we might as well cut and roll with the young bucks
