Derek Carr on the run, and not for his life, as Raiders open practice

NAPA — Derek Carr dropped back, checked his progressions, and finding no one open and defenders retreating to cover receivers, broke to his left and set sail toward the sideline.

He got several yards downfield before running out of bounds.

We’ve heard this before about Carr. He’s got some athletic skill, and perhaps he should take advantage of them from time to time and move around a little bit. No one is asking him to be Michael Vick or even Rich Gannon, but a rushing first down every now and then would be advantageous toward moving the chains.
