He is out of the building because it is so nakedly a move to make him expendable.
That does not mean that Raiders find a better solution than keeping Carr, if he agrees to rework his deal for less AAV.

I call BS. You don't make this move if you're not tanking and have an outside shot at a playoff game. And you don't bench a guy you're trying to trade after a bad game. You're acting like McDaniels and Davis don't have a long history of being vindictive weasels.
They're lobbing Carr under the bus. It's McDaniels' way to write the off-season narrative that it's all Carrs fault. It's McDaniels' chance to plug his patriot guy in so they can transition into a full on patriot way redux and Davis is exactly the type to get suckered into it.
There is so little to gain by starting stidham. And a lot to lose by revealing these guys character to be what many forgot they were. It's two games. Let the game finish his time there with a shred of dignity. This isnt some strategic move. It's petty and small.
