Carter has been one of the Jets’ bright spots this season. He had a massive game in the Jets’ Week 8 upset win over the Bengals, racking up 77 rushing yards and nine catches for 95 receiving yards. Overall, he’s averaged 73.8 scrimmage yards in his ten games to go along with four touchdowns.

Unfortunately, Carter is expected to be sidelined for the next few weeks. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Carter is dealing with a low-grade high-ankle sprain, which will likely cost him 2-3 weeks.

With Carter out of the lineup, Tevin Coleman figures to take over as the team’s top running back.
