2024 Fantasy Outlook
Carter has developed into one of the top slot cornerbacks in the NFL, posting nine passes defensed in each of the last two seasons. The 2021 fifth-round draft pick heads into the final year of his rookie contract as a member of arguably the league's best cornerback room, with Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed starting on the outside.

Returns to practice Thursday
Carter (back) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Carter suffered a back injury during the Jets' Week 9 win over the Texans. He opened the week with a DNP on Wednesday, but he was able to return for Thursday's session, indicating that he is progressing through the injury. If Carter is able to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday, he should be tagged as questionable heading into Sunday's game against Arizona.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
No extension talks
Carter has yet to engage in contract extension talks with the Jets, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old is headed into the final year of his rookie contract after being selected in the fifth round of the 2021 Draft, and he's coming off a season in which he led all nickel cornerbacks in a number of statistical categories. The Jets have some tough decisions to make in their secondary, though, as starting boundary corners Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed will both potentially be looking for new deals after the 2024 season. That may not leave much cap room to also extend Carter, despite his strong play last year.
