Cornerback Michael Carter II has only known one team in his five-year NFL career—the Jets. However, on Wednesday he appeared to make a move that demonstrated a willingness to leave them behind.
According to a Wednesday afternoon report from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Carter is waiving a crucial clause in his contract in order to facilitate his trade from New York to the Eagles. Carter, due $5 million guaranteed for injury in 2026, is reportedly waiving that provision in order to join Philadelphia.
