***EDITOR'S NOTE: This prospect profile was published prior to Carter’s March 1 arrest on reckless driving and racing charges. He entered no contest pleas to the charges on March 16 and was sentenced to serve 12 months of probation, pay a $1,000 fine, perform 80 hours of community service and complete a state-approved defensive driving course, according to attorney Kim T. Stephens.*** Carter was one of the top recruits in the country after excelling on the football field at Apopka High School in Florida. Also, he played basketball and placed second in the state weightlifting competition's heavyweight division with a 395-pound bench press. That strength showed up early in his career with the Bulldogs, as he started twice in 10 games as a true freshman during the 2020 season (14 tackles, three for loss, one blocked kick). Carter played alongside 2022 first-round picks Jordan Davis and Devonte Wyatt on the defensive line for the national champions in 2021. He was a second-team All-SEC selection that fall (37 tackles, 8.5 for loss with three sacks, two blocked kicks, two starts in 15 games). Carter led a Bulldogs defense that allowed the fewest rushing yards per game (77.1) in 2022, garnering first-team Associated Press All-American and all-conference honors despite missing time during Georgia's title run with knee and ankle injuries (32 tackles, seven for loss with three sacks, three pass breakups, two forced fumbles in 13 games, nine starts). -- by Chad Reuter
