Carter caught three of five targets for 17 yards in Monday's 19-16 win over the Broncos.
Both Carter and tight end Gerald Everett acted as Justin Herbert's security blankets on a night when the Broncos pass rush was consistently in the quarterback's face. Carter had lost playing time in prior weeks though, and Monday's outing doesn't necessarily represent a change in fortune. Keenan Allen (hamstring) hinted he could make his return next week, which would all but end Carter's offensive snaps.
