Derek Carr doesn’t just help save NFL teams, the Raiders quarterback proved Tuesday he’s there for anyone in need.

No matter which team you root for.

Just ask local music producer Ron Reeser, who ran out of gas in Dublin and couldn’t believe who came to his aid.

What’s holding back Raiders’ Derek Carr? Football’s most basic statistic Reeser told Bill Williamson of All.22 he wasn’t having the best of days when his car ran out of gas on the side of the road. Reeser was getting ready to walk toward a gas station with his gas can when a man in a black SUV pulled up.

“The man asked me if everything was OK,” Reeser said. “I said I ran out of gas. He said, `Hop in, I’ll take you.’ ”

The two men began talking and Reeser said the man asked him what he did for a living. So they talked about music for a bit before Reeser asked what the Good Samaritan’s line of work was.

“He says `I play football and is heavily into God and wants to become a pastor some day when he retires,” Reeser said. After arriving at the gas station, Reeser fills up his can and hops back into the truck for a ride back to his car.

They began talking about football again. Reeser, who by this time figures the young man is perhaps a college player, asks what position he plays.

“He said he was a quarterback,” Reeser told All.22. “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.’ ”

“He couldn’t have been more down to earth,” Reeser added. “He was wearing a hat and basketball shorts. I had no idea. He was just driving by and helped. It really made me feel good that there are good people still out there doing nice things for people.”

After the two men exchanged contact information and a prayer, Reeser admitted Carr may have changed his fan allegiance.

“I’ve grown up a Niners fan,” Reeser said. “But the last year was pretty tough, and after my experience with Derek, I just may become a Raiders fan now.”
