East Rutherford, NJ (Sports Network) - The New York Giants re-signed
quarterback David Carr on Thursday.
Carr, entering his 12th NFL season, completed 2-of-3 passes in two games last
season as Eli Manning's backup. In 2011, he did see action behind Manning
during the Giants' championship season.
Selected with the overall No. 1 draft choice by Houston in 2002, Carr has
thrown for 14,452 yards with 65 touchdowns and 71 interceptions in 94 career
games.
After five seasons as the starter with the Texans, Carr spent 2007 with
Carolina before joining the Giants for the first time. He was Manning's backup
for the 2008 and 2009 seasons before a year in San Francisco, then returned to
New York in 2011.
