2025 Fantasy Outlook
Carter is arguably the best nickel cornerback in the NFL when healthy, but his box score stats were quiet in 2024, as he posted only one pass defensed and 24 tackles in 13 games while playing through a back injury. In the three preceding seasons, Carter averaged 7.7 passes defensed and 61.7 tackles. Carter's poised to bounce back if healthy under the Jets' new coaching staff. Read Past Outlooks

Estimated DNP on Wednesday
Carter (concussion) was estimated to be a DNP on Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Jets did not hold a practice on Wednesday so Carter's lack of participation is an estimate. Carter was concussed Monday night against the Dolphins and is now on a short week ahead of Sunday's date with the Cowboys. Isaiah Oliver was the biggest beneficiary of Carter's missed time against Miami.

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.
