Derek Carr ran for a first down late in the fourth quarter and dove over three other players to try and do so.

As he fell down to the turf out of bounds, however, Carr landed directly on his left wrist and arm.

He immediately reached for his arm while on the ground, clearly in a lot of pain.

Carr walked off the field and into the locker room, and he didn’t move his left arm much at all as he did so.

Backup Jake Haener came in to replace him for the rest of the drive, though they failed to convert on third down and had to punt the ball away.

The Saints then intercepted Giants quarterback Drew Lock on their penultimate drive.
