In Sunday’s blowout win at the Caesars Superdome, Lip readers believe that New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr sent a ruthless message to Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn.

In the final seconds of the third quarter, with the Saints up by 27, cameras caught Carr and Horn exchanging words. People on social media believe Carr said, “What are you talking about?” I got three touchdowns on you.”

Here is the video:

According to Alex Hoegler of Total Pro Sports:

With the victory, Derek Carr is now 5-0 in his career against the Panthers with a 69.28 completion percentage and eight touchdowns against three interceptions.

Horn was in coverage on Rashid Shaheed’s 59-yard touchdown that opened the scoring early in the first quarter. The 2021 first-round pick had one tackle in Carolina’s season-opening loss.

Horn has been one of football’s best shutdown corners since entering the league in 2021. Unfortunately, injuries limited the South Carolina product to 22 total games over his first three seasons, including nine games combined in 2021 and 2023.
