Bears' DeAndre Carter: Targeted once in defeat
DeAndre Carter caught a seven-yard pass in the Chicago Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.Carter had a pair of three-catch games when Keenan Allen missed time in Weeks 2 and 3. However, since Allen returned to action, Carter has one catch over the last four games. Unless other Chicago wide receivers miss time, Carter is unlikely to post useful fantasy numbers.

Bears' DeAndre Carter: Questionable for Week 5
DeAndre Carter (ribs) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers.Head coach Matt Eberflus told reporters Friday that Carter has been progressing throughout the week, so it appears the 31-year-old could be a game-time decision Sunday. If Carter's ribs injury is too much to overcome, expect Velus Jones to serve as Chicago's top kick and punt returner.

Bears' DeAndre Carter: Makes progress
DeAndre Carter (ribs) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.Carter logged a DNP on Wednesday, so this is a step in the right direction for the veteran wideout and return man. However, his status for Sunday's game against the Panthers remains in question. If he's unable to play, the team may make Velus Jones active for the first time since Week 1 to handle return duties in the kicking game.

Bears' DeAndre Carter: Six targets in defeat
DeAndre Carter caught three passes for 22 yards in the Chicago Bears' 21-16 loss to the Colts on Sunday.Carter continues to see a regular role in the Chicago offense while Keenan Allen (heel) is sidelined. As long as Carter remains in a that role, he'll continue to function as a possession receiver. Once Allen returns, Carter is likely to be a core special teamer who sees occasional snaps on offense.

Bears' DeAndre Carter: Four targets in defeat
DeAndre Carter caught three passes (on four targets) for 32 yards in the Chicago Bears' 19-13 loss to the Texans on Sunday.Carter was been the replacement for Keenan Allen when the veteran missed snaps in Week 1, and in this game against the Texans when Allen was inactive. It's unlikely that Carter will see regular targets when Chicago's top three receivers are healthy. However, when called upon to play significant snaps, Carter may be a useful possession receiver.

Bears' DeAndre Carter: Targeted twice in opener
DeAndre Carter hauled in one of two targets for six yards in the Chicago Bears' 24-17 win over the Titans on Sunday.In addition to returning five punts for 64 yards and one kickoff for 67 yards, Carter also saw time in the wide receiver rotation. With two targets, Carter had the most targets of any Chicago receiver aside from DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze. If Carter continues to earn the trust of the coaching staff, it's possible that he moves into a more prominent role in the offense if other pass catchers miss time.

Raiders' DeAndre Carter: Totals 494 return yards in 2023
DeAndre Carter caught four passes for 39 yards on seven targets and rushed three times for 18 yards in 17 games during the 2023 season. He also returned 24 punts for 232 yards and 11 kicks for 262 yards.Carter, who'll turn 31 years old in April, served primarily as a return man in his first season with the Las Vegas Raiders, logging just 102 total offensive snaps. The journeyman wide receiver is set to become an unrestricted free agent in 2024, so it's uncertain that he'll be back as a specialist in Las Vegas.
