Michael Carter could have earned himself some more touches this week.
Robert Saleh said the rookie running back was "electric" against the Patriots.
Carter had 13 touches for 78 yards. He and starter Ty Johnson (50 yards rushing) each played 33 snaps while last week’s starter Tevin Coleman (24 yards) played just seven.
"It’s a big credit to Michael Carter, he was running his tail off," Robert Saleh said.
