Forget wondering if Boo Carter will play on offense for this season’s Tennessee Volunteers.
Will he play on defense again?
The former do-everything standout for Chattanooga Christian and Bradley Central didn’t get a defensive snap during Saturday night’s 33-27 loss to Oklahoma inside Neyland Stadium. Carter’s only action transpired on punt returns — returning two for 8 yards and fair-catching one.
Carter muffed one return but fell forward on the ball for a 3-yard gain.
The Vols essentially used five defensive backs against the Sooners, with Edrees Farooq, Colton Hood and Ty Redmond each logging 66 snaps, Jalen McMurray 62 and Andre Turrentine 58. The only other defensive back employed was Kaleb Beasley, who played eight snaps.
