The Oakland Raiders have named Derek Carr their starting quarterback.

Carr has won the job over Matt Schaub, who the Raiders traded for in the offseason.

"Not an indictment on Matt Schaub, Derek Carr is mature beyond his years," coach Dennis Allen said after Monday's practice. "We feel very comfortable with him helping us win football games. ... Derek is the starting quarterback."

 

Carr was a second round pick out of Fresno State.

Carr will be the 18th different starting quarterback since 2003.
