Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr set Twitter abuzz with a new look to host the 2022 NFL Draft.
The 2022 NFL Draft just got underway but Twitter is already buzzing about the activity on the stage—thanks to the intriguing new look of Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr.
This year, the NFL Draft is being held in Las Vegas, so maybe Carr wanted to freshen things up for the sake of playing host in Sin City. It’s also possible he’s feeling good and wanted to make a new impression on the team’s newest acquisition in Davante Adams after the trade with the Green Bay Packers. Whatever the reason, Carr’s new mohawk-sort of haircut had everyone talking.
Carr helped welcome the massive crowd in Las Vegas to the city and the draft festivities on stage behind NFL commissioner Roger Goodell along with Ice Cube and Raiders tight end Darren Waller and former Kansas City Chiefs legend Marcus Allen (sorry we’re claiming him). In doing so, he set Twitter on fire with his look.
