With New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr opting to retire, the Saints could turn to Aaron Rodgers as a potential replacement.

Carr started at least 15 games in each of his first 10 seasons. He did suffer a fractured fibula in Week 16 of the 2016 campaign for the Oakland Raiders that kept him out for the final game of the regular season and their playoff loss to the Houston Texans.

With Carr moving on to a life after football, the Saints have rookie Tyler Shough, second-year QB Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener headed toward a QB competition. That list of options, however, is missing a veteran signal caller, who could prove of significant value to New Orleans -- even if that player doesn't end up starting Week 1.
