Top prospect Abdul Carter weighing surgery in potential NFL draft twist
NY Post
Abdul Carter, a potential No. 1 pick in this year’s NFL draft, could be looking at surgery to deal with a stress reaction discovered in his right foot.
Tests Wednesday revealed the issue, and Carter’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that he will decide soon if he will undergo surgery.
“There are mixed opinions on whether he needs surgery, and we will figure that out in the near future,” Rosenhaus told Schefter of the ex-Penn State pass rusher on Wednesday night.
Carter is expected to make the decision this week and Rosenhaus insisted that the issue wouldn’t hinder his draft prospects.
“Either way, worst-case scenario, we don’t expect this to impact where he is drafted,” Rosenhaus said. “After visiting with teams this week, I believe he’s going to be the No. 1 overall pick.”
The Penn State standout huddled with his family and agents, Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey, on Wednesday, conferring with medical professionals over the issues.
