Team pass/rush volume vs league — scheme residual, not a second projection.
Carter had 25 solo tackles, 1.5 sacks in 2026, ranking LB23 through 7 games. The running rank is LB23 through 7 games, from LB58. Don't treat that like a season finish. 2026 looks more like a flex than a locked starter. The trend line says buy: this is a climb, not a name you're paying nostalgia tax for.
