Fantasy Impact:

Wentz wasn't great, and finished 19-of-37 passing for 194 yards. He was sacked only twice, but Tennessee hit him 10 times throughout the contest. The story said the hope for Wentz is to get him more practice time this week, but at this point he looks to be good to go for Week 4, an early afternoon, Sunday road game at Miami.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is retiring, the team announced Saturday.

The team said that Carr had a labral tear and degenerative rotator cuff damage to his right throwing shoulder.

Related Players: Tyler Shough, Spencer Rattler

Fantasy Impact:

It has long been expected that Carr could have problems getting on the field in 2025, but those problems clearly ran deeper. Shough and Rattler will battle it out for the QB1 role, and it's looking like a safe bet that Shough will handle a vast majority of the starts this season.
