New video reveals what Saints QB Derek Carr said to wide receiver Chris Olave during their the Jaguars game last Thursday.
Carr’s frustration boiled over as the Saints suffered a 31-24 loss, marking their second consecutive week of offensive struggles.
With the Saints trailing 24-16 and just over 10 minutes left on the clock, Carr found himself scrambling out of the pocket on a crucial third down in their own territory. His pass to Olave sailed far beyond the receiver and out of bounds, forcing the Saints to punt.
Carr was pissed after the incompletion and seemingly yelled at Olave during the broadcast. After the game, Carr said that he was not speaking directly to Olave, now we learn that’s false.
A new video released of Jaguars’ pass-rusher Travon Walker, who was Mic’d Up for the game, being in close proximity to Carr during the outburst. Carr could be heard shouting, “What are you doing? Run! Run!” directly at Olave.
Oh boy… #Saints QB Derek Carr was caught on Mic'd Up during the #Jaguars game screaming at Chris Olave in that viral clip.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?? RUN!"
The Jags YT account had Mic'd Up Travon Walker and it caught Carr during his tirade.

Walker chirped Carr: “It wasn’t there. Derek, it wasn’t there.”
It seems Saints fans are already over the Derek Carr experiment in New Orleans.
