The agent of Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has revealed that his client won't require surgery on his injured finger after experiencing numbness.
The Raiders hope the second-year signal-caller will respond to rehabilitation which will allow him to avoid a procedure.
"It's a very minor situation," agent Tim Younger told the San Francisco Chronicle.
"I think he's probably going to be throwing before the end of [the Raiders' off-season workouts]."
Carr started all 16 games in his rookie season, but Christian Ponder is currently working with the first team in organised team activities.
