Carter went down in the fourth quarter with New York trailing 26-13 in San Francisco in their season opener against the 49ers. Only a few plays later, the Niners kicked a field goal.
Carter was spotted going into the blue medical on the Jets’ sideline after grabbing his lower leg. Prior to departing the contest, Carter had two tackles.
