Overview
- After the bye, coaches say Carter has arrived earlier, spent more time in the film room, and shown a "pro-like" response to discipline.
- Interim head coach Mike Kafka does not anticipate further punishment this week, putting Carter in line to start Sunday against Washington.
- The rookie was previously benched twice for missed or late team obligations, sitting the first series vs. Green Bay and the first quarter vs. New England.
- Despite a low sack total, analytics credit him with strong disruption, including 44 pressures and a league-leading 2.21-second time to pressure (per FTN via Doug Analytics).
- Staff members urge him to add pass-rush counters as interim coordinator Charlie Bullen installs a more aggressive approach following the Giants’ coaching shake-up.
