Wishing Carter a speedy recovery and hopefully he can get back soon enough and keep developing more ahead of the playoffs.  I have really liked what he has been giving us and hopefully its only a few weeks to get more time to get ready ahead of the playoffs.

Bummer, this kid has been giving us some snaps out there and been coming along nicely.  Hopefully he is back sooner rather than later.

 

 

I'd rather lose him now than later. Yet is a shame as he was developing nicely.

He was arguably our best DT in recent weeks…

 

At least it’s not long term.  
 

Just be healthy for the playoffs for once and we can handle the nonstop 2-4 week injuries this team keeps getting.

Sucks. Guy is an absolute bright spot, he seems to be a real brawler on the interior line. 
 

Id guess he has a little fracture that required a clean out surgery.

trade for a DT 


If we trade for a DT, it’s not going to be because Carter is going to miss a few weeks.  
 

They have Oliver, Jones, Johnson and will likely rotate in Logue as DT4.   Kick in Smoot on pass downs etc..

 

Im all for trading for a DT though, but not because of this news.

it just means we are thinner there.  Oliver and DQ are already banged up too and playing through injury.   I do like the idea of Smoot inside on passing downs

Carter has been an underrated player so far.  With many still critiquing Beane about the use of the 3rd round pick.

 

Silver lining is that it doesn't seem to be season ending, possibly even less than 4 weeks.

 

Another year of defensive injuries, across the board (and Von suspension).  Good news Von is back next week and we can slide Smoot back to 3T more often.  Also sounds like Matt Milano recovery might be going well.

I wouldn't say he's better than Oliver today, but to me he's shown better flashes than Oliver did in his first year.  Hopefully we see him on the field with a club at the end of December.

I'm reading on one site that wrist surgery recovery takes about 8 to 10 weeks... another site said 4 to 12... 

Bummer that he misses KC in season but hope he's good for the playoffs.

I think he's a more complete player than Oliver. I mean I didn't even know Ed dressed last week until mid 3rd quarter they showed him in uniform on the field.

I think Knox missed five weeks last year.  Pry will be back after the bye week.  Just play Oliver every snap.

Thanks for the optimism. Knox had wrist surgery in late October and returned to practice in early December. Hopefully that timeline will happen for Carter.
