Carter was said to have been feeling ill on Monday when he abruptly left media interviews. Tuesday was his second missed practice of the week so the Bulldogs made a move to fill in for Carter.

Outside linebacler Chuks Amaechi was working with the inside linebackers. Amaechi has lined up at the position at times in the past. He has 11 tackles, a half a tackle for loss and a pass breakup as a backup outside linebacker this season.
