Overview

  • Carter announced his commitment Saturday night after visiting Boulder, confirming his move from Tennessee to Colorado.
  • He has two seasons of eligibility remaining and is rated among the top defensive backs in the transfer portal by 247Sports and On3.
  • As a 2024 SEC All-Freshman, he logged 38 tackles and led the conference in punt return average, adding special-teams value.
  • In 2025 he recorded 25 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, a sack, three pass breakups and three forced fumbles, along with productive punt returns.
  • His exit from Tennessee followed a November dismissal and conflicting explanations, and he now joins a large CU transfer class that includes fellow safety Naeten Mitchell.
