Derek Carr confirms that he has shoulder injuries and pushes back against critics

The status of Saint's Quarterback Derek Carr is still one of the most important and strangest stories of the low season.

Carr had a shoulder injury that nobody knew about. It came out of nowhere. Linger questions when it happened, how bad it is, whether he is operated on and whether he will play for the saints this year or ever.

Some answers came in an unlikely place over the weekend. While he spoke on Sunday in a two -hour service, Carr dealt with the situation.

“Yes, I have to say that,” said Carr. “I hate that I have to say that, but I have to say that. Yes, I have a shoulder injury, despite what ESPN says. And what could a lady in a podcast? I have an MRI report to prove it.

“And I have to do with it, and I have to deal with people who lied about me, and I have to do with the fact that you and that and that and that and that and that say:” Lord, why do I have to continue to deal with this nonsense? How, what's going on? “And I said this to a foreword to you, never know what someone really goes through.

“And why do we constantly try to attack people? And I would say people who try to do things the right way. Why do we keep trying – why do we always have an opinion? Why do we – Twitter and Instagram ruin things that have ruined things for some people?

It is an interesting platform for Carr to exercise his complaints about the natural reaction to the sudden news of his previously unknown injury. In the absence of facts, people will try to fill the emptiness. In view of the unpleasant atmosphere that existed between Carr and the saints in the low season, people will of course ask themselves how real the injury is.

There is a simple solution for everyone who believes that the voices on social media do not matter. Don't pay attention to you. If you are looking for unanimous and universal praise, social media are not the right place to find it. No matter how many accounts you block.

Why does Carr “deal with this nonsense”? It is possible with the area to be a top -class professional athlete. This year it earns 40 million US dollars and a career gain of almost 200 million US dollars.

Thick skin is a must. In the absence of this, it is important to deal with things so that the criticism is minimized. Regardless of the true state of his health, this situation was not treated in such a way that voices in the media and social media are held from sharing their opinions.

Everyone was surprised to hear that he had a shoulder injury. And there were just enough calm tensions between Carr and the saint to ask themselves whether we experience competing steps on a chess board with high use.
