What a strange twist this is
The unusual, strange Derek Carr saga in Las Vegas is taking another weird turn.
The exiled nine-season starter of the Las Vegas Raiders was named as a replacement to the AFC Pro Bowl team (he was a deep alternate) Tuesday and Carr has accepted.
Well… maybe this invitation got lost in the mail from past seasons but I’m going back to pro bowl #4. See you soon Vegas!

Thus, Carr will get to say goodbye to Raiders fans and Las Vegas this week. The Pro Bowl events, of course, are being held in Las Vegas and ends with a flag football game Sunday at Allegiant Stadium.
Carr, of course, missed the Raiders’ final two games (both at Allegiant Stadium) after the team decided to bench him and he was not part of the team because of potential distractions. Now, he will be able to be around during this week’s events that start Wednesday.

Final AFC Pro Bowl QBs:
• Trevor Lawrence
• Tyler Huntley

It will likely be awkward and Carr will likely be the most approached player in Las Vegas by media members trying to get his reaction to the events of the past month-plus and what he thinks is instore for him next.
Carr will either be released or traded in the coming weeks. But, first, the Pro Bowl awaits.
What a crazy story this has been and continues to be.
