Penn State edge rusher Abdul Carter will reportedly not work out at Friday’s pro day, per CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones. Carter is viewed as a possible New England Patriots draft target, and one has to wonder if the injury could force him down the draft board.

On Wednesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter indicated that he believed it would be unlikely for Carter to drop to the Patriots at fourth overall. Carter was diagnosed with a stress reaction in his right foot during the NFL combine. The injury stems from the Nittany Lions' game against Boise State during the College Football Playoffs.
