According to Jeff Howe of theย Boston Herald, “word is” free agent DE Andre Carter still lacks both speed and overall explosion after suffering aย torn quadriceps muscle last December.
Howe adds that Carter is “not close to being ready to play.”
Carter, who had 10 sacks and 22 QB hits with the Patriots last year, has drawn interest from the Raiders and Rams. At age 33, its fair to say that Carter will probably not go back to the same form he was in the beginning of last season.
