Tepper was there?

I doubt Tepper was involved in the meeting if we're not very seriously considering Carr. That doesn't seem like a "tire kicking" type of meeting.

Yeah, that puts a little difference spin on things.

I just hope there were no meatballs involved or any gut feeling driven shift to full on recruiting mode.

My guess is that it's a plan B element that they are covering in case they need to move fast to get a deal done. I know that when Carr was released it changed a lot of teams plans at qb.  I think it's a smart move to know if he is really a fall back option.

I feel like Tepper is going to be involved with every QB interview and discussion this offseason. If he was already in Indy why would he not be part of the meeting after how involved he's been in everything the entire offseason. I feel like his presence is less of a tell than a number of other owners would be.

This time he's not sitting there with Marty Hurney as his football resource.

I suspect Tepper will be in on all the player interviews today.

Kinda doubt it. Quarterbacks maybe, but all players? Probably not.

And no, I wouldn't downplay this.

Yeah I feel like that's just where we are at right now, ideally he continues to be a helpful tool and not an issue, but at the moment I just assume he's part of the group anytime they mention us meeting with anyone.

I may not downplay it but its not a massive tell, if we bring him to the facility next week it probably would be. Carr has met with the full Saints and Jets brass a number of times already. Tepper should have been in our meeting regardless.

Did anyone catch the interview with the Raiders coach yesterday? I came away with the impression that the parting of ways could have been a blessing for Carr. Gannon is a strange dude who appears to be in over his head.
