Michael Carter 2021 NFL Draft Profile
Posted Mar 26, 2021
Michael Carter is well positioned among the running backs in the 2021 NFL Draft. Although he was slightly overshadowed by his UNC backfield mate Javonte Williams, Carter saved his best for last, averaging 8.0 yards per carry last fall. He doesn't fit the profile of a workhorse back, but there are more than enough tools for him to contribute in the NFL.
