Derek Carr is expected to meet with a number of teams at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis this week.

According to a report, Carr will meet with the Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints and New York Jets.

The quarterback has already met with the Saints and Jets in some capacity this offseason.

Jim Caldwell said he's done pursuing head coaching jobs in the NFL. Caldwell is currently senior assistant of the Carolina Panthers. Caldwell has interviewed for more than six head coaching jobs since he was fired by the Detroit Lions after the 2017 season.

"Right now, the only job that I'm concerned about is the job I do here, right here and now," said Caldwell. "I'm not worried about the future or anything else. I don't plan on being a head coach from this point forward."

Caldwell said he will continue to strive to get more Black head coaches in the league. He just won't be part of that group.

"When you look at the numbers, they speak for themselves,'' he said of the league's track record for hiring Black head coaches. "There's been volumes and volumes of articles written and reporting on television about the lack of diversity in terms of the head-coaching position.

"But there's been a lot of things in the background to try to improve that."

The Carolina Panthers will hired Thomas Brown as offensive coordinator.

Brown was most recently assistant head coach and tight end coach for the Los Angeles Rams.

The Panthers hired Frank Reich as head coach this offseason.

Both the Indianapolis Colts and Carolina Panthers had discussions with Dan Orlovsky about prominent offensive coaching roles within their franchise, according to a report.

Orlovsky, 39, has been working at ESPN as an analyst since 2018.

The former NFL quarterback instead opted to remain at the network.

The Las Vegas Raiders have released Derek Carr before $40.4 million in his contract became guaranteed. Carr is expected to draw interest from the New Orleans Saints, Carolina Panthers and others.

The Raiders clear $29.25 million in cap space in 2023 with the move as they now project to have approximately $50 million in space.

Carr was a second round pick by the Raiders out of Fresno State in 2014. Carr was a four-time Pro Bowler with the Raiders. 

The Carolina Panthers have hired Ejiro Everto as defensive coordinator.

Evero spent last season as defensive coordinator of the Denver Broncos. Evero asked Sean Payton to let him out of his contract to explore other opportunities. 

Evero was a head coaching candidate for the Panthers, Arizona Cardinals and Indianapolis Colts.

Despite hiring Frank Reich over Steve Wilks as the head coach of the Carolina Panthers, owner David Tepper says he's doing what he can to break up the "old boys' network" in the NFL.

The old boys' network of mostly white owners has a history of not putting minority candidates in positions of power.

"We have probably the most diverse executive team in the NFL right now," Tepper said. "We are probably a minority of white men on our executive team right now. That's where it starts. That's America.

"How do you break that old boys' network? How do you break that process? You break the process by trying to get the best people possible in every role you can do. Whether it's the new [general counsel] we hired, who happens to be an African American woman. Whether it happens to be Frank Reich, who is a Caucasian male."

There currently are only three Black head coaches in the NFL: Todd Bowles of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers and DeMeco Ryans of the Houston Texans. In addition, Mike McDaniel of the Miami Dolphins identifies himself as biracial.
