Barrett Carter posted a heartfelt message to the Clemson community on Wednesday.

“I’ve been incredibly blessed to wear orange and purple the last four years,” Carter wrote. “And I’ll forever be grateful for everything Clemson has given me – the Clemson family will always have a special place in my heart.”

“I want to thank Coach Swinney, the entire coaching staff and my teammates for believing in me and pushing me to be better every single day. You all made me into the player I am today and you’ve taught me so much about what it means to be a leader, to sacrifice and give everything you’ve got for something bigger than yourself.”

“I thank God for giving me the greatest opportunity to play college football. Now I’m ready for the next challenge. The NFL is where I’ve always dreamed of being, and I’m excited to take everything I’ve learned here at Clemson and apply it to the next level. I know this journey won’t be easy, but I am ready to give it everything I’ve got.”

“Thank you Clemson. This is just the beginning.”

The four-year linebacker just finished up his career at Clemson last weekend when the Tigers fell to Texas in Austin in the first round of the College Football Playoff.

Carter was a two-time All-American and two-time All-ACC honoree, finishing his career with 233 total tackles, 31.5 tackles for loss, 12.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and 12 passes defended.
