Officially placed on IR
The Bills placed Carter (Achilles) on injured reserve Thursday.
Analysis: Carter will miss the entire 2025 season due to a torn Achilles suffered in late August. The 2024 third-round pick's focus will now fully turn to his rehab, with the goal of making a recovery in time for the beginning of training camp next season.

Has torn Achilles
Carter tore his Achilles tendon and will miss the entire 2025 season, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
Analysis: This is a tough blow for Carter, who was looking to grow in his second NFL season following a quiet rookie year. His loss will also test the depth of Buffalo's defensive line, as Carter had been slated to fill an important rotational role. Achilles injuries typically have a return timeframe of 9-to-12 months, so Carter will face a challenge attempting to be ready for training camp next year.

Has quiet rookie campaign
Carter ended the 2024 regular season with 14 tackles (11 solo) and a defensed pass over 11 games.
Analysis: After being selected in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, Carter was used primarily in a rotational role as a rookie, though he did make three starts. The Duke product also had a five-game IR stint due to a wrist injury and didn't get any snaps during the Bills' three playoff games. The wrist injury seemed to stall Carter's development to some extent, as his role had been increasing prior to the IR stint. He'll look to stay healthy and continue to adjust to the NFL game as a sophomore next…read more

Playing Sunday vs. Rams
Carter (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Analysis: Carter will return from a five-game absence after undergoing wrist surgery in late October. The rookie third-round pick will provide the Bills with depth at defensive tackle behind starters DaQuan Jones and Ed Oliver.

Activated off IR
The Bills activated Carter (wrist) from injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Carter was sidelined for the Bills' last five games after undergoing surgery on his wrist in late October. He was able to fully participate in practice all week, and while he's still considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, his activation off IR indicates he should be able to suit up. In the seven regular-season games prior to his injury, Carter logged nine tackles (eight solo) and one pass defense.

Won't return from IR in Week 13
Carter (wrist) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's matchup versus the 49ers.
Analysis: Carter underwent wrist surgery in late October and was consequently placed on IR. He was designated to return Wednesday and logged a trio of full practices this week, but the rookie defensive tackle isn't quite ready to return to action. Carter's next chance to suit up will be Sunday, Dec. 8 against the Rams.

Questionable for Week 13
Carter (wrist) is questionable to play against the 49ers on Sunday, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Carter was placed on injured reserve Oct. 25 due to a wrist injury. He has been sidelined for the Bills' last four regular-season games, and he has a good chance at being activated before the 4:00 p.m. ET deadline Saturday after logging full practices all week. If he does return, Carter will serve in a rotational role at defensive tackle Sunday behind DaQuan Jones and Ed Oliver.

Designated for return
The Bills designated Carter (wrist) for return from injured reserve Wednesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: A third-round pick at No. 95 overall out of Duke in the 2024 NFL Draft, Carter logged 183 defensive snaps and another 19 on special teams across the first seven games of the season. He's missed the last four contests while on injured reserve. Wednesday's move officially opened the rookie's 21-day practice window.

Lands on IR with wrist injury
Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Friday that Carter was placed on injured reserve and will undergo wrist surgery, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.
Analysis: The rookie third-round pick was limited in practice all week due to a wrist injury he likely picked up during the Bills' Week 7 win over the Titans, during which he registered three solo tackles across 30 defensive snaps. A stint on injured reserve means Carter will be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season contests, making Week 13 against the 49ers on Sunday, Dec. 1 the earliest he could return. While Carter is sidelined, Austin Johnson and Zion Logue will serve as the Bills'…read more
