METAIRIE, La. — Despite suffering his second concussion in month, New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr participated in practice on a limited basis Wednesday.

Carr, who also suffered right shoulder and rib injuries after suffering a second-half hit that took him out of the Saints’ 33-28 loss to the Lions in the Superdome on Sunday, remains in concussion protocol. But his symptoms are apparently not severe enough to prevent him from practicing.

The 32-year-old suffered a concussion and shoulder injury against the Vikings on Nov. 12.

Carr signed with the Saints in March after spending his first nine seasons with the Raiders after then-head coach Dennis Allen selected him in the second round of the 2014 draft.

In 12 games played, Carr is 261 of 394 for 2,761 yards with 11 touchdowns and six interceptions. He currently has a QB rating of 89.4 – which is down from his career average of 91.6.

Carr’s latest concussion was the third game-ending injury of the season, starting with a right shoulder injury against the Green Bay Packers in Week 3. He returned to face the Buccaneers in Week 4 for the Saints’ second straight loss.

Saints tight end-slash-quarterback Taysom Hill was noticeably absent from practice as he recovers from injuries to both his foot and left hand.

Allen said Hill will be monitored throughout the week prior to the Saints (5-7) home game against NFC South rival Carolina (1-11) on Sunday.
