The New York Jets released running back Michael Carter on Tuesday, and he is now subject to waivers. Former Jet and current Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore took to Twitter to try and possibly suggest that Cleveland should consider pursuing Carter’s services.
Of course, because he is on waivers, even if Cleveland puts in a claim, he might go to someone higher on the waiver order. Carter had a solid rookie season but failed to really carve out a role since then. I’m not sure it makes sense in Cleveland the way the room is currently constructed, but it is absolutely worth consideration.
Carter is a quality pass catcher out of the backfield and could bring that interesting skill set to Cleveland. The biggest issue is finding where the snaps would come from if they added Carter. Jerome Ford played his best game as a pro last week and Kareem Hunt has a clear role so in the end though an interesting player it likely doesn’t make sense for the Browns.
