Carter on His 40-Yard Dash Times at Clemson’s Pro Day

Former Clemson linebacker Barrett Carter ran the 40-yard dash on Thursday at Clemson Football’s Pro Day in the Poe Indoor Facility.

Carter spoke with the media after Pro Day and said he heard he ran a 4.5 and 4.6, unofficially, in the 40-yard dash.

A two-time All-America selection and two-time All-ACC honoree, Carter was credited by Clemson’s coaching staff with 254 tackles (31.5 for loss), 12.5 sacks, 24 pass breakups, three interceptions, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries over 52 games (40 starts) from 2021-24.

At the conclusion of his career, Carter’s 2,482 career snaps were the most by a Tiger linebacker on record. He was the only player in the nation during his four-year career to record at least 30 tackles for loss, at least 20 pass breakups and three or more interceptions.

The 2025 NFL Draft is scheduled to be held from April 24-26 inside and around iconic Lambeau Field and Titletown in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

NFL Network’s Bucky Brooks recently ranked the top five players at each position in this year’s draft class, and he has Carter as the No. 4 off-ball linebacker, while ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. currently ranks Carter as the eighth-best off-ball linebacker for the 2025 draft.
