Standout MAC tight end Christion Carter to participate in Lions' local pro day

Former Northern Illinois tight end Christion Carter has accepted an invitation to the Detroit Lions' local pro day, per a report Friday.

The Draft Network's Justin Melo reported Carter's expected attendance following his standout performance last month at NIU's pro day. Carter posted a 35-inch vertical and 10-foot-4-inch broad jump to go along with a 4.62 40-yard dash time.

The fastest tight end at this year's combine was Oregon's Terrance Ferguson with a 4.63.

Carter is the latest name reported to be attending the local pro day at the team's practice facility in Allen Park.
