He is a key cog in the Jets defense who does not get the credit some of his teammates do.
to Quinnen Williams to C.J. Mosley, the unit has players considered to be some of the best at their position all over the field. He is not as splashy as Gardner or dynamic as Williams, but he is steady and has made himself into one of the best nickel cornerbacks in the NFL .“Yeah, I feel like that,” Carter told The Post this week when asked if he feels like the best nickel in the league. “I feel like I still have another level to tap into.
“He’s kind of a quiet assassin,” Jets coach Robert Saleh said. “He’s so reliable, he’s out there, he doesn’t get as much fan fare, but he’s as reliable as any nickel there is in football. Teammates love him, works his tail off, and he’s another guy that we can do a lot with, and because of that, it adds a little bit of a dimension to our defense that many others can’t have.” Carter admits he sometimes feels underrated, but that is not new for him.
The nickel market got a bump this offseason when the Colts gave Kenny Moore a three-year, $30 million contract and that was then topped by the Bills and Taron Johnson’s three-year, $31, million deal. Carter said he hopes to remain with the Jets and get the chance to see through the turnaround of the organization.
