Carr: 'Love being a Raider' despite not 'popular'

Derek Carr has tweeted that he loves playing for the Oakland Raiders and that he loves "the struggle of trying to fight back for our city when not a lot of people believe in us."

One day after Oakland traded star receiver Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys, Carr tweeted:

I'm a Raider. It's not a "popular" thing to be a Raider right now, but I am and I love it. I love the struggle of trying to fight back for our city when not a lot of people believe in us.
