Silver Minings: Derek Carr leaves mark after first win at Allegiant Stadium

The Raiders won their first of what will likely be many games at their brand new stadium in Las Vegas. Allegiant Stadium opened its doors to the world on Monday night, as they hosted the first game in the history of the stadium.

Vegas came out on top with a thrilling 10-point victory over the Saints, and Raiders’ quarterback Derek Carr wanted that moment to be immortalized in the stadium.

Not sure where in the stadium this is, but Carr wrote “Allegiant Stadium! 1st win. LV 34-24 NO” followed by his signature.

Carr completed 28 of his 38 passes on Monday night. He threw for three touchdowns with zero interceptions and was only sacked three times.
