Tyrone Carter AFC Defensive Player of the Week

[jpele]

Tyrone Carter, who intercepted a pair of passes in the Steelers' 28-10 win over the Broncos last Monday, has been named AFC Defensive Player of the Week.

Carter started at free safety for Ryan Clark, who was held out of the game because of a medical condition, and he scored the Steelers' first touchdown on a 48-yard interception return.

In the last three starts at free safety dating back to last season, Carter has intercepted five passes and returned two of them for touchdowns.

He earned his paycheck this week. :tt02:

Where are all the Tyrone Carter haters now?

Carter gives everything he has, sometimes it's not enough, but this guy is apart of the Steelers defense for a very good reason. Congrats to Carter on another well deserved AFC player of the week (I believe he had one last year as well with another multi-INT game)
