00:00Dr. Chow, late in the game yesterday at MetLife, Derek Carr of the Saints trying to take off,

00:09dive for a first down, goes up in the air.

00:12As he is coming down on the turf, he lands on his left non-throwing hand.

00:18The Saints did say they fear it is a fracture to that left hand.

00:22From video, what did you see?

00:24What do you think is the prognosis for Carr in the remainder of his season?

00:29Well, he had a head check as well, but the concern is his hand slash wrist.

00:34And by video, in-game, we put out that there was worry for a scaphoid fracture at the base

00:40of the hand.

00:42That would mean surgery and casting.

00:44I get it.

00:45It's his non-throwing hand.

00:46I've gotten a lot of questions of, so what?

00:48Why can't he play with it?

00:50Well, you got to, even if after surgery, you have to have a cast or something on.

00:54And what about ball handling and handoffs and ball security?

00:58So it's not that simple.

01:00The Saints are still mathematically in it with their victory, but it's going to look

01:04like it's not going to be Derek Carr.
