Jenna Laine of Sports Talk 1040 in Tampa is reporting that Carter is expected to sign with Gang Green “barring any unforeseen circumstances”.

Carter could be more than just a depth signing if given the opportunity to compete with Erin Henderson for the starting job alongside David Harris in the middle of the Jets defense.
