Oakland Raiders – Derek Carr

The Oakland Raiders quarterback with the best eyeliner in the NFL admittedly plays a bunch of Fortnite. He is a converted PUBG (playerunknown’s battlegrounds) player who now squads up with his Raiders teammates on a regular basis.

Could you imagine trying to explain Fortnite to Raiders head coach Jon Gruden? “Fortnite? What is that? Is that a new play? I’ll tell you what I feel like we haven’t played football in a God dang fortnight, man! Let’s get on the field!”

*fist bumps all around*

Carr and the Raiders had a down season in 2017, posting a 6-10 record after going 12-4 the season prior. They were one of hte NFL’s biggest disappointments last year and they made waves in the offseason to try to get back to their winning ways.

Raiders owner Mark Davis hired the better looking version of himself in Jon Gruden, who hasn’t coached football since 2008 (Tampa Bay Buccaneers). If you google Mark Davis’ name, a picture of Jon Gruden shows up (It’s been this way for months and no one cares to change it).

Here’s a live look at Carr learning Gruden’s playbook in between Fortnite matches:

Favorite weapon: Carr doesn’t have an issue when it comes to weapons. He has them all. He does, however, have an issue with his teammates dropping the ball (Got ’em).

Go-to Emote: Anything that gives us a close up of his face because I seriously think he wear eyeliner to the games.
