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

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Most likely Jet to be dealt
Carter could be the most realistic player to be traded by the Jets prior to the deadline, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Carter is only 26 years old and is under contract through the 2027 campaign, so he's a viable part of the future core. However, he's struggled in coverage this season, allowing 13.7 yards per reception and a 99.2 QB rating when targeted, per PFF. The Jets also acquired Jarvis Brownlee from the Titans earlier in the year, who could be a cheaper alternative to Carter. Despite the down season, Carter is drawing interest from teams like the Eagles and Falcons.
