The New Orleans Saints keep making moves.
Derek Carr may have gotten a new friend, as the team just gave him a veteran offensive lineman.
According to his agents, Joel and Justin Turner, veteran OL Lucas Patrick will move to the Big Easy on a one-year contract (via ProFootballTalk).

The 30-year-old lineman has spent the past couple of seasons playing for the Chicago Bears, and he even had to start 15 games at center because of a plethora of injuries.
During that span, he allowed 2 QB hits and 25 hurries in 953 snaps, and he didn’t allow a single sack.
The Bears originally had him as a reserve guard, playing on both sides of the line and even making five starts in 2022.
Then, a toe injury forced him to miss the remainder of the season.
Patrick entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Duke back in 2016.
He was signed by the Green Bay Packers, and he spent five years at Lambeau Field.
The Saints enter the campaign with high expectations, and this could be a make-or-break campaign for both Dennis Allen and Derek Carr, so they will most definitely need their offensive line to be on point.
