Head coach Dennis Allen said Carr (oblique) took part in a throwing session Monday and will throw again Tuesday before the Saints assess his status for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

While Carr hasn't been ruled out for Sunday after missing the last two games with a left oblique strain, Allen admitted this past Friday that he was more confident the quarterback would be available for a Week 9 matchup with the Panthers. The Saints will see how Carr responds to throwing on consecutive days before potentially clearing him for some practice this week. If he doesn't make enough progress in his recovery to play Sunday, Allen said that he plans to have rookie Spencer Rattler make a third straight start.
