Andre Carter Injury: New England DE Carted Off With Leg Injury

With the New England Patriots already struggling to generate any sort of pass rush throughout the season, the last thing they could afford was another injury to the defensive line. However, it appears that the Patriots could be without Andre Carter for the forseeable future, as he had to be carted off with what appeared to be a lower leg injury:

@MaxBroncos: Looks bad for Andre Carter, whose father, Rubin, was a legendary component of the old Orange Crush as the NT. Putting no weight on his leg.

Carter has been outstanding for the Patriots this season, recording 52 tackles and a team-high 10 sacks. While the New England offense shouldn't have a problem moving the ball against Denver, the Patriots will need to find a way to generate some stops to win this game.
