Chris Carr Shines in Raiders Opener
Chris Carr, former Boise State Broncos kick returner, was a bright spot in the Raiders’ 30-20 loss to New England last night. Carr had six kick returns for 151 yards and three punt return for 15 yards.
Carr was an undrafted free agent who earned his spot on the Raiders roster by his hard work in the preseason. Coach Norv Turner had this to say about Carr during the preseason:
“I told the team before the first minicamp that somebody in the room was going to surprise them and make the team. We were looking for somebody to return kicks. He wasn’t drafted for whatever reason. He was the best return man available after the draft and we signed him.”
