Jets Coach Robert Saleh Sees 'Special Talent' in Rookie RB Michael Carter

Posted Dec 28, 2021
In his second game back from an sprain, Jets rookie RB Michael Carter ran for a career-high 118 yards in New York's 26-21 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. "Michael Carter, he's such a special talent," coach Robert Saleh said on Monday. "The first tackler never brings him down. If the O-line blocks it for 5 [yards], he's finding a way to get 8, 9 and 10." (New York Jets)
