Man Stranded Roadside, Unknowingly Gets Help from Raiders QB Derek Carr

This is vintage Derek Carr.

Earlier this week, the Oakland Raiders quarterback noticed someone who had ran out of gas on the side of a road in Dublin, California. The man, a music producer named Ron Reeser, hopped in with Carr, who drove to the nearest station.

"He says 'I play football' and is heavily into God and wants to become a pastor some day when he retires," Reeser told All 22 (h/t Anthony Galaviz of the Fresno Bee).

Reeser asked a few more questions while filling up his can:

"

He said he was a quarterback. I thought he was a college quarterback. I asked him what string he was. He said 'first string.'

I asked him his favorite team. He said, 'I may be biased, but the Raiders because I play for them.' I looked at him and said, 'Wait.' And I asked him his name. He said, 'Derek Carr.'"

"

The two prayed together before going their separate ways. Reeser told All 22 that Carr helped "restore my faith in people."
