Raiders quarterback Derek Carr appeared to be crying for his mom on Sunday after he was sacked for the sixth time by the Seahawks defense.

According to his brother, former NFL quarterback David Carr, he called Derek out for it. Instead of denying it, the younger Carr revealed he was crying because of a shot to the head.
Was @derekcarrqb weeping? And more importantly, how did his older brother @DCarr8 handle it?
Tough spot for David, but I think he nailed it.@SheralynCarr pic.twitter.com/KiuRIoMZ7N

Sounds like we have a little fake an arm injury to hide a head injury action going on. The NFL better investigate “crygate” immediately.
If we had to place any bets, we would bet that he learned the move from Jon Gruden. It’s one of the ways they handled head injuries back when he was coaching the first time around.
