Overview
- After being limited in practice late in the week, Carter is on track to be available for Week 5 against Denver, according to For The Win.
- Carter acknowledged the shoulder issue has lingered since training camp and described it as “a little serious,” though he says it currently feels good enough to play.
- He briefly left the 31-25 win over the Buccaneers and logged 49 of 72 defensive snaps as the team tempered his workload.
- Per Pro Football Focus, he has no sacks this season and is pacing below last year’s pressures and hurries, reflecting a dip from his 2024 All-Pro form.
- A fourth-quarter chase of Baker Mayfield appeared to aggravate the shoulder, and with edge depth thinned by injuries such as Nolan Smith on IR, his availability carries added weight for the Eagles’ pass rush.
