Overview
- Carter played 67 snaps (75% of defensive plays) in Week 2 and logged five pressures against Dak Prescott, per Next Gen Stats.
- The rookie hurried Prescott on a third‑quarter blitz from an off‑ball spot that led to a Giants interception, yet he finished with one tackle and one quarterback hit.
- Coaches are evaluating his alignment after just eight snaps at off‑ball linebacker in Dallas, as injuries at inside linebacker have thinned the depth chart.
- Through two games, he has four tackles, two quarterback hits and half a sack, contributing pressures but few box‑score plays for a No. 3 overall pick.
- External scrutiny has risen after Bleacher Report listed him among players under the most pressure for Week 3, following his recent post praising Micah Parsons’ impact.
