Report: Derek Carr has right ring finger injury

Raiders quarterback Derek Carr didn’t join his teammates on the practice field Tuesday with an injury that Raiders coach Jack Del Rio didn’t seemed overly concerned about when he spoke to the media.
Del Rio didn’t disclose what was bothering Carr, but Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports that it is a right ring finger injury. Mortensen reports that surgery is a possibility and that Carr may miss the remainder of the team’s organized team activities, but that the team is optimistic he’ll be fine in time for training camp.
Carr started all 16 games last season and he’s going to be the starter again this year even whether he practices at all before camp. He’ll miss time to smooth out the rough edges in his game and develop on-field chemistry with teammates, but the Raiders would rather have him miss that time than take a risk of endangering the season.
Until Carr’s back on the field, Christian Ponder, Matt McGloin and Cody Fajardo will be doing the quarterbacking for the Raiders.
