Carter III earned a defensive PFF grade of 70.4 in 2025 after a standout season with the Monarchs. He totaled 76 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, and six interceptions, which ranked No. 2 in college football. Two of those interceptions came in Old Dominion’s 24-10 over USF in the Cure Bowl. In 2024, he appeared in all 12 games, finishing the season with 23 tackles and a pass breakup, while also leading the team with nine special teams tackles.<\/p>\n
It is unclear if FSU safeties coach Evan Cooper and defensive coordinator Tony White will kick the tires on the 6’2”, 195-pound safety, but with that position rapidly thinning, the standout season that Carter III will definitely put him on Florida State’s radar.<\/p>\n
