5 Facts You Didn't Know About Derek Carr

Derek Carr is only 24 years old, but will start the upcoming football season as the Oakland Raiders starting quarterback for the second straight year. The stand out rookie has tons of potential after a successful season last year and the former Fresno State Bulldog is prepped for another big year in the silver and black.

Here are five facts you may not know about Carr:

5. He has a Golden Labrador retriever named Bruce Wayne.  

The two make an adorable pair. They look almost as good as Amari Cooper and Carr will look together on the field next season.

4. He plays guitar, piano and the drums

According to him, former college teammate Devon Wylie taught him how to play guitar at Fresno State.

3. One day, he wants to own his own church

2. His favorite color is "police light blue"

It's an oddly specific color and an interesting way to describe it, but that's what it is.

 1. He loves to play basketball

Although this clip is of him dunking on his wife, Heather, it still looks like he can ball. Plus, I'm sure he picked up a few pointers after going to college with Indiana Pacers star Paul George.
