After being slammed to the ground on a sack by Rashan Gary on a 3rd-and-9 Sunday, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr was in obvious pain. We now know his official diagnosis.

Derek Carr Injury Update

Gary wrapped up and slammed Carr onto the ground on a third-down sack in the third quarter. Carr was able to walk off the field, but the Saints’ training staff was looking at the quarterback’s right arm as he got up and headed to the locker room.

It was recently revealed that Carr has a sprained AC joint and is week to week.

After Carr went down Sunday, former No. 1 overall pick Jameis Winston took over for Carr.

Through two games with New Orleans, Carr is 2-0, completing 44 of 69 passing attempts for 533 yards, a TD, and two INTs. Prior to the injury Sunday, Carr completed 13 of 18 passing attempts for 103 yards.

After taking over, Winston was 10 for 16 for 101 yards.

Late Monday night, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Saints HC Dennis Allen characterized Carr’s sprained AC joint as week to week. He also reported that the team is going to be cautious with their QB and it would be a surprise if Carr played Sunday against the Buccaneers.

While Saints’ HC Dennis Allen characterized Derek Carr and his sprained AC joint as week to week, the team is going to be cautious with its QB and it would be a surprise if Carr played Sunday vs the Bucs.

So it’s setting up as Saints’ QB Jameis Winston vs. his former team.

As Schefter pointed out, looks like Winston might be getting a shot at his former team. Winston vs. Mayfield. Should be a fun one.

Fantasy Update Following Carr’s Diagnosis

With Winston under center and Alvin Kamara back, this Saints offense would look quite a bit different than what we saw through 2.5 games with Carr under center.

Winston has never been one to embrace checkdown passes, putting Michael Thomas’ target share in danger of falling in a significant way, especially with Kamara soaking up more targets in the short passing game than the RB position has up to this point in New Orleans.

Chris Olave is an elite receiver, and that’s not going to change. His range of outcomes is greater with Winston under center, but he’s a locked-in starter in all formats either way.

Rashid Shaheed’s big-play profile (40+ yard play in six of his past eight games) would seem to fit like Winston likes to do. And with a week to get comfortable, that would land Shaheed right in the middle of the Flex conversation, even after a zero-catch performance in Week 3.

The Philadelphia Eagles vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Monday Night Football game is somewhat a tale of David vs. Goliath. The Eagles, undefeated and coming off of a Super Bowl appearance, will battle the Buccaneers, who were the odds-on favorite to be the worst team in the league with Baker Mayfield under center.

Now, both teams are looking to extend their win streaks to three, and both can take the lead in their respective divisions. Will the Mayfield magic continue? Will Jalen Hurts and this Eagles offense be too much for the Bucs to handle?

We will update this section as the Eagles vs. Buccaneers game is played.

Highlights and Analysis

Third Quarter: Eagles 10, Buccaneers 3

9:05 p.m. ET: Swift is slowly taking over this game. And, he did so with an unreal highlight play which you can see below. The Eagles are once again in the red zone looking to extend their lead to two scores. Also, shootout to the PFN social media team. Excellent tweet (X?).

Second Quarter: Eagles 10, Buccaneers 3

8:35 p.m. ET: Nevermind. Rookie Jalen Carter forced a FUMBLE and the Eagles are back on the field with 24 seconds left.

8:30 p.m. ET: The Eagles were driving and about to score. They also get the ball in the second half. So this was a massive drive if the Buccaneers wanted to remain in this game. Well, the defense did their job with a massive INTERCEPTION on Hurts. Now, with less than 45 seconds to go, Tampa Bay could go into the half tied at 10.

8:17 p.m. ET: The Bucs played with fire and got burned. This Eagles offense is simply too good. Hurts took a deep shot to Olamide Zaccheaus for a 34-yard TOUCHDOWN. The Eagles are now up 10-3. Unfortunately for the Buccaneers, when it rains, it pours. On the very next drive, Mayfield makes a bad throw in the center of the field and the Eagles get the INTERCEPTION. Eagles are now at the 37-yard line and are driving again.

Jalen Hurts does it again!

He has now thrown 13 TD passes when attempting a pass of 20+ yards since the 2022 season — most among #NFL QBs (stats by @IE_NFL).

8:05 p.m. ET: Think the Bucs were listening to me? As soon as I criticized the offense, they finally got something going. Although they had an excellent shot at a TD with Mike Evans, the Eagles’ defense managed to stop Mayfield and limit the Bucs to a FIELD GOAL. We have a tied game! And under 44.5 betters are enjoying the snail’s pace this one is currently moving at. 8:33 remaining in the second.

7:55 p.m. ET: At the start of the second quarter, the Buccaneers brought a ton of pressure on Hurts and forced a three-and-out. Tampa Bay now needs to find a way to get this offense going. Mayfield has completed just four passes for 44 yards.

First Quarter: Eagles 3, Buccaneers 0

7:44 p.m. ET: Eagles get the first points of the night thanks to a chip shot FIELD GOAL from Jake Elliott. The Bucs are lucky to only be down three at this point. The Eagles have not had a tough time moving the ball.

7:37 p.m. ET: Swift makes another impressive run, causing Troy Aikman to proclaim that he could play tailback with this Eagles offensive line in front of him. We have our doubts Mr. Aikman. We have our doubts.

7:33 p.m. ET: And just like that, the Buccaneers go three-and-out, punt the ball, and the Eagles are already past midfield thanks to an impressive 52-yard punt return. Tampa Bay will not beat this talented Eagles team making mistakes like that.

7:25 p.m. ET: As good as that drive was for the Eagles, it came to a surprising end as the team went for it on 4th and less than five. Kenneth Gainwell failed to convert and it is once again Buccaneers ball. Guess the Eagles can’t always rely on pushing their QB forward for a few yards.

7:20 p.m. ET: The Buccaneers start the game with the ball but fail to move it downfield. They got one first down and then needed to punt. The Eagles, meanwhile, have not had a hard time moving the ball. The first play from Jalen Hurts was a 26-yard pass to A.J. Brown. Then, followed that up by another deep ball for 16 yards. D’Andre Swift then rushed for 7.

After a quiet Week 2, A.J. brown gets catches on the first two plays of the game for the #Eagles!

Eagles vs. Buccaneers Picks and Predictions

All odds are from DraftKings Sportsbook unless stated otherwise.

• Spread
  Eagles -5
• Moneyline
  Eagles -225, Buccaneers +185
• Total
  45

Bearman: Not all 2-0s are created equal, as we saw with Washington on Sunday. Give credit to the Bucs for starting 2-0, but now the NFC champs are coming to town.

I expect Hurts and company to move the ball at ease to give the Bucs their first loss of the season.

The Eagles’ weakness this season has been their pass defense, but I don’t think Mayfield and the Bucs will be able to exploit it.

I’d also play Hurts to score a touchdown like we did last week.

Picks: Eagles -5 (-110 at DraftKings), Jalen Hurts anytime touchdown (-105 at DraftKings)

Katz: There’s a lot more optimism surrounding Rachaad White after his admittedly much-improved Week 2 performance. But let’s not forget he faced the Bears — you could probably run for 60 yards against them.

In Week 1, White carried the ball 17 times for 40 yards against a Vikings run defense that just allowed D’Andre Swift to run for 175 yards. Now, he gets an Eagles run defense that completely stuffed Alexander Mattison and Rhamondre Stevenson in each of the first two weeks.

MORE: NFL Standings

Philadelphia has yet to allow a single run of 10+ yards. Stevenson and Mattison combined to total just 53 yards over the first two weeks.

White also has just one carry for 10+ yards on the season, and it came last week against the Bears (13 yards). Essentially, this is a two-unit play on White split into two bets that I love.

Picks: Rachaad White under 47.5 rushing yards (-115 at DraftKings) and Rachaad White longest rush under 11.5 yards (+100 at DraftKings)
