Andre Carter II was a sack machine while playing at West Point for Army. Since coming to the NFL, the former UDFA has had a hard time getting his footing, but this preseason, he has finally found some with the Minnesota Vikings.
Carter II further his progress this preseason when he started the second half for the Vikings with a strip sack to get the ball back for the team.
The team scored 20 first-half points, and Carter II’s strip sack allowed the team to score three-point points to start the second. The defense has been dominant overall, making quarterbacks Kenny Pickett and Tanner McKee struggle to find success.
The team’s pass rush has been impressive all preseason and now Andre Carter II has gotten in on making a big play in the backfield. The second half will allow for more edge rushers and linebackers to get involved in the same way, including Bo Richter, who is looking for a sack in his third straight game.
WE GOT THE BALL!
Coach was fired up with the start to the 2nd half.
