Following another impressive Sunday outing, this time after a busted pinky on his throwing hand, Derek Carr once again named the NFL’s clutch performer of the week.
In the final quarter of the Carolina game, with a glove on his right hand, Carr went 8/10 for 116 yards and 1 touchdown. He threw a game-tying touchdown pass to Clive Walford and on the next drive, he led the Raiders up to field once again, which was capped by a Sebastian Janikowski field goal that proved to be the game-winner.
Evert Geerlings, who is in Media Relations for the Raiders, tweeted out several interesting factoids regarding Carr, the Raiders and this same award.
