The catch took place at the end of the second quarter when Carter Jr. intercepted a pass in the end zone from Ti-Cats quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell intended for wide receiver Brendan O’Leary-Orange. With ease, Carter Jr. scooped the ball with one hand moments before it would have landed in the hands of the Hamilton receiver for a touchdown.
This is Carter Jr.’s first year in the CFL, but not his first time making a stellar play. See a similar catch he made in 2024 while at Robert Morris University:
The internet has been buzzing since Sunday’s game, rightfully so. Take a look at some of the praise the rookie Lion is receiving below:
