00:04 >> Derek Carr sidelined in the second half for
00:08 the Saints against the Vikings in Minneapolis.
00:11 Jameis Winston came in, tried to lead a comeback charge, but
00:15 Jameis threw two touchdowns and also two interceptions.
00:19 Michael Thomas also exiting the game early for the New Orleans Saints.
00:24 Let's start with Derek Carr, Dr. Chow, what do you think the timeline looks like
00:28 for the QB in the Big Easy?
00:30 >> Look, when you hear reports that he was carted off, there's lots of worries.
00:37 And I always say judge the injury, not the reaction to the injury.
00:41 He walked to the sideline.
00:42 Yes, he got hit on the outside of his right shoulder.
00:45 Yes, he may be in concussion protocol, but with the bye week,
00:48 we fully expect him to return and play for the Saints the next time they take
00:52 the field.
00:53 There were essentially three main Saints injuries.
00:56 He's quote the best one.
00:58 Next best or worst as you might put it is Michael Thomas with his knee,
01:04 at least an MCL.
01:06 And we'll see, I'm sure he's getting an MRI.
01:08 And Marshawn Latimore may be the worst with a high ankle sprain,
01:12 one of the key defenders.
