The New England Patriots announced that standout defensive end Andre Carter has been placed on injured reserve with a leg injury.
Carter was carted off the field during Sunday’s 41-23 win over the Denver Broncos. After the game, reports emerged that Carter would need surgery for a quadriceps-related injury.
Signed to a one-year, $2.25 million contract that included an additional $750,000 in incentives, the 32-year-old Cal product started all 14 games before his injury, totaling 52 tackles and a team-high 10 quarterback sacks. The Patriots have not yet filled Carter’s roster spot, but did sign rookie defensive lineman Cedric McKinley to the practice squad.

It is suppose to be that the defense was tremendous, but there is the intangible “phenomenon Tebow”. I guess that deserves discussion about what the Broncos record would have Kyle Orton continued to play. It looked like a losing team with Orton. The D is great, but Tebow say what someone should get some credit for the 7-1. QB is usually judged by victory and defeat plain and simple. The numbers may not be there but the most important. Now this could be the Trent Dilfer argument again, but these reimbursements fourth quarter just make the discussion more interesting.anyway, for more news, we can visit http://www.tebowformvp.com/… thanx
