“Tennessee offered,” Carter announced. He also has offers from Utah, Vanderbilt, Baylor, Colorado State, UConn, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Virginia Tech since entering the transfer portal.

The 6-foot-4, 184-pound wide receiver appeared in 16 games from 2023-24 at McNeese State. He totaled 40 receptions for 593 yards and three touchdowns. Carter recorded 37 receptions, 537 yards and three touchdowns, while averaging 44.8 yards per contest in 2024.

Carter also recorded five 50-plus-yard performances in 2024, including a game-high 108 yards. His longest reception was 36 yards.

Carter is from Kentwood High School in Kentwood, Louisiana. He did not have any recruiting rankings from 247Sports as a 2023 prospect.

The NCAA transfer portal spring window will remain open through Friday. Tennessee received a transfer from UCLA quarterback Joey Aguilar during the spring window. Aguilar’s commitment to the Vols came after redshirt sophomore quarterback Nico Iamaleava transferring from Tennessee to the Bruins.
