Derek Carr is considered one of the top young quarterbacks in the NFL and was on his way to a playoff run in 2016 before a broken leg knocked him out for the rest of the season.
But in 2017, Carr began to reap the benefits of his play on the field, by signing a new contract extension that made him the highest paid player in the NFL.
On Monday, just 13 days before he begins the 2017 regular season, Carr had a simple message to share to his fans and followers on twitter.
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ! I have seen with my two eyes the power of it. I know it can change lives b/c it changed mine
