Duron Carter world tour headed to Carolina next

For a guy who has never caught an NFL pass, Duron Carter has drawn a lot of free agent interest.

The son of Hall of Famer Cris Carter has put together quite the world tour already, and its next stop is in Charlotte.

Via Ben Goessling of ESPN.com, Carter will work out for the Panthers Wednesday, and could still make trips to see the 49ers, Browns and Titans after that.

He’s already worked out for the Buccaneers, Colts, Chiefs and Vikings.

He’s drawing attention because he’s not the ordinary Canadian refuge, after putting up over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns last year with the Montreal Alouettes.

The interest from multiple teams will create a small bidding war, but most of the stops on the tour are also places where he could create a niche for himself quickly. The Panthers are desperate for someone other than Kelvin Benjamin to throw the ball to, so their interest is natural.
