Arr, me hearties! Juwan Johnson, that fine New Orleans Saints tight end, be spillin' his heart on tryin' to forge a kinship with Derek Carr. The crew be prayin' that they've stumbled upon their future QB treasure.
Tight end Juwan Johnson, who joined the New Orleans Saints in 2020, has become a consistent player on the team's roster. However, the quarterback position has seen many changes throughout his time with the Saints. The team has gone through a rotation of quarterbacks including Drew Brees, Taysom Hill, Trevor Siemian, Jameis Winston, Ian Book, and Andy Dalton before acquiring Derek Carr from the Las Vegas Raiders before the 2023 season.Out of Johnson's four touchdown catches, three have come from Carr, and the other came from Hill. He has also caught touchdowns from Dalton, Winston, and Siemian. As the league year transitions from 2023 to 2024, Johnson expressed his desire to build continuity with Carr during the offseason. He emphasized the friendship and chemistry they have developed off the field and how it translates on the field.
Carr had an impressive first season with the Saints, throwing for 3,878 yards and 25 touchdowns in all 17 games. With a healthy team, the Saints could be contenders for the NFC South title in 2024 after narrowly missing out on it to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this season.
Johnson looks forward to continuing his relationship with Carr and believes their friendship will contribute to their success on the field. He plans to visit Carr in the upcoming weeks to further build chemistry. The tight end recognizes the importance of their faith in bringing them together and enjoys the fun they have while playing the game.
Overall, Johnson is optimistic about the future of the Saints and their potential to compete at a high level in the coming season.
