After being thrown to the ground by Danielle Hunter and Jaquelin Roy, Viking’s pass rushers, Carr left the game in the third quarter.
He completed a pass to receiver Chris Olave midway in the third quarter after he stayed down on the field for a while and eventually left the field.
As reported, Carr’s injury is on the same shoulder he suffered earlier this year and apparently, he also has a concussion.
Saints head coach Dennis Allen also confirms Carr QB suffered a concussion and a right shoulder injury and will have to sit back before New Orleans returns to action in Week 12.
The coach said,
“He was evaluated for a concussion. I can’t really talk about it or elaborate on it. We’ll look at it, but he was out of the game because he was evaluated for a concussion.” The QB had 13-of-18 for 110 yards before leaving the game as he took the injury he drove the Saints to their first touchdown of the day.
As per the latest updates, after some time in the tent, Carr was carted to the locker room and since then he was ruled out of the game with a right shoulder injury.
The NFC South leader New Orleans will be hoping he can make a speedy, quick recovery and will not have to miss the next game.

In his absence, Jameis Winston will take over, who came in and completed the drive for the Saints’ first touchdown of the game.
