Cut by Miami
The Dolphins released Carter on Tuesday.
Analysis: Carter appeared in just one game in 2022, as he spent most of the season on injured reserve while recovering from a concussion. The 27-year-old tight end will now look for an opportunity elsewhere, and while he shouldn't be expected to contribute as a pass catcher, he will bring special-teams value wherever he ends up.

Goes to IR with concussion
Miami placed Carter (concussion) on its injured reserve list Saturday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Carter has not played this season since suffering a concussion in the Dolphins' season opener versus New England. Now he'll have to miss at least the team's next four games as he works his way back onto the field.

Will miss fourth straight game
Carter (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Carter will miss a fourth straight game due to a concussion. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 6 against the Vikings, but due to his prolonged absence, the Dolphins will presumably be cautious with the reserve tight end even when he's cleared for practice.

Remains in concussion protocol
Carter (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Carter has missed three straight games due to a concussion and remains in protocols ahead of Week 5. He'll have two more opportunities to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Jets, but given his prolonged absence, the Dolphins will likely be cautious before thrusting him back into game action.

Won't face Bengals
Carter (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game in Cincinnati, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Carter will miss a third straight contest as he works his way through the concussion protocol. Hunter Long (ankle) also appears in danger of missing Week 3, so Tanner Conner could get another chance to handle the No. 3 gig behind Mike Gesicki and Adam Shaheen.

Listed as non-participant
Carter (concussion) is listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimation, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Carter has missed the last two games due to his concussion, and his status on Monday's practice estimation isn't encouraging. If he hopes to play Thursday against Cincinnati, he'll likely need to return to the practice field in some capacity over the next few days.

Ruled out
Carter (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Carter will miss a second straight game after suffering a concussion during the season opener. Hunter Long (ankle) also remains out, so Tanner Conner will continue to operate as the backup behind Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe.

Still absent from practice
Carter (concussion) was not present at the open portion of Miami's practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Carter suffered a concussion during a kickoff in Week 1 and has been sidelined since. Regardless of whether he'll be available for Sunday's game versus Buffalo, the Dolphins seem content to use a combination of blocker Durham Smythe and route-runner Mike Gesicki at tight end.

Won't play in Week 2
Carter (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Ravens, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Carter suffered a concussion during a kickoff in Week 1 and will be sidelined for at least one additional contest. He garnered a small role (five total snaps) in the season opener, so his absence shouldn't impact much.

Enters concussion protocol
Miami coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Carter is in concussion protocol, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Carter went down after suffering a scary head injury on a kickoff during the Dolphins' season-opening win over the Patriots on Sunday. The fifth-year tight end, who played 265 of his 312 total snaps on special teams in 2021, will now look to pass through the NFL's concussion protocols heading into the team's Week 2 matchup against the Ravens on Sept. 18.

Won't return Sunday
Carter (head) was ruled out for the remainder of the Dolphins' game against the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: Carter was able to walk off under his own power after being tended to on the field for a head injury by Miami's training staff Sunday, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. While the exact nature and severity of this issue are still unclear, the core special teamer's next opportunity to play will come on Sept. 18 against the Ravens.

Clears COVID-19 list
Carter (undisclosed) was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Analysis: Carter missed Monday's contest against the Saints, but he is expected to return in Week 17 against the Titans. However, the 26-year-old tight end's presence is not expected to change much, as he hasn't played more than four offensive snaps since the first two weeks of the season.

Placed in protocol
Carter (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: If Carter's unable to clear COVID-19 protocols before Monday's game against the Saints, his absence is unlikely to have much of an effect on Miami's offense since he sits fourth on the tight end depth chart. It's not clear at this time whether he tested positive for the virus.

Clear of injury report
Carter (leg) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Carter suffered a leg injury in the preseason opener but will be ready to go for Week 1. The 26-year-old is poised to work as a depth tight end for Miami.

Injures leg in preseason opener
Carter suffered a leg injury in the 20-13 loss against the Bears on Saturday, David Furones of the Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: While blocking, Carter had the action on the run roll into his left leg, causing him leave the game. The good news is that the 25-year-old was seen walking under his own power on the sideline. The fourth-year tight end spent last year in Cincinnati, where he played in 15 games, amassing five catches for 53 yards. If Carter is forced to miss significant time with the injury, his chances of making the roster are likely limited.

Back from COVID list
Carter (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: Carter has been away from the team since landing on the COVID list over the weekend, but he can retake the field for Miami after clearing the health and safety protocols. The 25-year-old caught five passes for 53 yards in 15 games for the Bengals in 2020 and inked a three-year, $7.8 million deal with the Dolphins this offseason.

Lands on COVID list
Carter was placed on the COVID-19 list Sunday.
Analysis: Carter, Mike Gesicki and Adam Shaheen all landed on the COVID-19 list as apparent close contacts after co-offensive coordinator and tight ends coach George Godsey tested positive for the virus, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Carter signed a three-year deal with the Dolphins in March after he totaled just 66 yards and a touchdown while serving primarily as a blocker in Cincinnati.

Signs with Dolphins
Carter signed a three-year deal with the Dolphins on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Carter spent the first four seasons of his career in Cincinnati, though he missed all of 2018 with an arm injury. Though he's appeared in at least 15 games in his three other campaigns, Carter has commanded only 11 career targets. Instead, his primary value comes as a blocker, and he'll now work behind the likes of Mike Gesicki, Durham Smythe and Adam Shaheen in Miami.

Serves as blocker 2020
Carter hauled in one of two targets for a 21-yard gain in the Bengals' Week 17 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: The tight end suited up in 15 of the Bengals' 16 games, but he drew a mere seven targets on his 220 offensive snaps for the season, illustrating how much the Bengals view him as a blocker. His role is unlikely to change no matter what other additions or subtractions the Bengals make at the position in 2021.

No targets in loss
Carter played 14 offensive snaps and didn't receive a target in Sunday's 19-7 loss to the Dolphins.
Analysis: Carter maintains around a 25 percent target share on a weekly basis. However, he's rarely used outside of a blocking role, as he's recorded just four receptions for 32 yards through 11 games.

Full participant Thursday
Carter (shoulder) was a full go at Thursday's practice, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Carter currently sits second on the Bengals' tight end depth chart behind starter Drew Sample. The former only has two catches for 25 yards on the season.

Won't go Sunday
Carter (shoulder) won't play in Sunday's game against the Browns, Geoff Hobson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Carter was originally thought to be a healthy scratch, however, he won't sit out due to the shoulder injury. The Bengals will head into the rivalry game with just two active tight ends in Drew Sample and Mason Schreck.

One catch
Carter had one catch for 24 yards in Sunday's win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Carter was only on the field for 20 offensive snaps, whereas fellow tight end Drew Sample was on the field for 64 snaps and had five targets to Carter's one.

In line for more snaps
Carter is in line for more snaps as the Bengals' second tight end now that C.J. Uzomah is out for the season.
Analysis: Carter presumably will be in there most often to block - in his first two seasons with the Bengals, he's had four targets, catching two passes for 13 yards and a touchdown. He had seven snaps Thursday night against the Browns without getting targeted.

Nabs contract tender
The Bengals tendered a 2020 contract Monday to Carter, a restricted free agent.
Analysis: Carter has spent his entire career in Cincinnati after going undrafted out of Nebraska in 2017. He took on an expanded role for the Bengals over the final quarter of the 2019 season, but he made most of his impact as a blocker. During that four-game span, he only recorded two receptions for 13 yards and a score.

Grabs first career TD in 2019
Carter caught two of three targets for 13 yards and one touchdown across 15 regular-season games in 2019.
Analysis: Carter kicked off the 2019 campaign relegated to special teams, but he managed to carve out a somewhat expanded role on offense after Drew Sample (ankle) suffered a season-ending injury. He's set to become a restricted free agent this offseason.

First NFL touchdown
Carter caught his first two targets of the season, including one that went for his first NFL touchdown, in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Carter was getting more work due to Drew Sample's season-ending injury. Prior to Sunday, almost all of his snaps had been on special teams.

Clears concussion protocol
Carter does not carry an injury designation Friday, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis: Tyler's absence from Friday's injury report indicates that he's fully cleared the league's five-step protocol for head injuries. He returned to practice without limitations Thursday. With Drew Sample (ankle) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Carter could be in line for increased depth snaps.

Upgrades to full practice
Carter (concussion) logged a full practice Thursday, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Carter missed the team's Week 13 victory over the Jets and logged a limited practice Wednesday. However, he upgraded to the full practice Thursday and should be in a strong position to return for the Bengals' Week 14 matchup against the Browns as a result.

Unavailable Sunday
Carter (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, Jay Morrison of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Carter sustained the concussion during Sunday's game against the Steelers and will miss at least one game as a result. Drew Sample (ankle) is also sidelined, leaving the Bengals with Tyler Eifert and C.J. Uzomah as the team's only tight ends this week.

No practice Thursday
Carter (concussion) is not practicing Thursday, Tyler Dragon of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis: Carter is nursing a head injury, and he looks to be trending toward missing Sunday's tilt against the Jets. The depth tight end will need to fully clear the league's concussion protocol before retaking the field.

Checked for concussion
Carter was forced out of Sunday's game against the Steelers to be evaluated for a concussion.
Analysis: Carter is considered doubtful to return to Sunday's matchup, leaving C.J. Uzomah and Tyler Eifert as the Bengals' only healthy tight ends. If Carter's concussion is confirmed, it will be his second head injury of the year -- he suffered one in the preseason as well.
