Derek Carr, the quarterback for the Las Vegas Raiders, announced his departure from the organization on Thursday in a lengthy social media message. He began by writing, “It crushes my heart, but he also stated that he would not be retiring.

I once said that if I’m not a Raider, I would rather be at home and I meant that, but I never envisioned it ending this way,” Carr added in the statement.

I still have that fierce desire to win a championship burning inside of me. A fire that only God can put out, not man.

I am therefore looking forward to a new city and a new team that will always receive my all. I’ve always wanted to win a championship, so I’ll keep working for it.”
