Derek Carr Reveals His Wife Had A Miscarriage While Trashing ESPN During Sermon In Church

Derek Carr, the quarterback for the New Orleans Saints, opened up about some personal stuff recently. During a sermon at church, he let it all out – including the fact that his wife had a miscarriage. It was a pretty emotional moment, and he didn’t hold back.

But here’s the kicker – while he was pouring his heart out, he also threw some shade at ESPN. Apparently, he wasn’t too happy with how they were covering his injury news and all that.

During the church service, Carr shared some heartbreaking news with his fellow congregation members, revealing that his wife Heather recently suffered a miscarriage.

He said that they had been scheduled to travel to New Orleans to get a diagnosis on his current shoulder injury when he had to rush his wife to the hospital.

Carr, who has been married to Heather since 2012, revealed that neither he nor his wife were aware they were expecting until the medics informed them that the miscarriage was behind her illness.

‘So now we’re hit with this emotional toll of “wait, we had a child?” So we don’t just have four babies, we have five. One is in heaven. We have three boys and a little girl, and we’re going to get to meet the other one when we get to heaven someday.

‘I say all that to say let’s be a people that doesn’t judge and point out and think the worst when you don’t really know what people are going through.’

The confession came amid the quarterback’s attack on the media, in particular reports from ESPN.

Amid the mystery shrouding the injury, reports began to break suggesting that it had been fabricated but Carr hit back at the claims, as he opened up on ‘dealing with people lying about me.’

‘I hate that I have to say this, but I have to say this,’ he said. ‘Yes, I have a shoulder injury, despite what ESPN says. And what some lady on a podcast might think, OK?

‘I have an MRI report to prove it. The team knows about it. We’ve been in constant communication. There’s nothing wrong. We’re figuring it out, and we’re gonna go forward with that. Is that OK?’

So, yeah, Derek Carr definitely had a lot on his mind during that sermon. It’s not every day you see an NFL player get real like that especially in churches.
