Carter gets 3 weeks to prove he deserves a roster spot, that's how I'm interpreting this news.

 

Certainly makes the decision between Carter and Mathis an easy one for a few weeks. 

 

Unless we were keeping 7, I had it down to those two for the final roster spot with Ed Oliver, Deone Walker, TJ Sanders, Landon Jackson, and Zane Durant all pretty much locks.

I wouldn't assume that. Considering it happened when he was a Jet - good chance they were aware of it when they brought him in. 

This would be a Beane kind of thing to do.

Will he first count on the 53 before he is suspended?

whatever the worst-case scenario for the Bills is as far as roster / gameday management, is what will happen.

Iirc from the guys who were suspended last year, I believe the answer here is no

No, he goes on the exempt list August 30, the same day the 53 man roster is due.

Weird that he’s just being suspended now 

Alcohol related?  Drinking in the spring isn't against conduct so we're looking at something he did while under the influence of alcohol?  Maybe he stole booze from the GM or spiked the punch at a team meeting?

Hello, DeWayne Carter.

 

Well that's interesting as just read an article today, think it was in the Athletic how in the past week, Carter was getting all the snaps ahead of Mathis and the writers assumption was the Bills felt he was outplaying him.  But likely the Bills knew this was coming.

I don't think he's a good enough player to wait 3 weeks for. He is on the roster bubble to begin  with IMO. Unless someone gets injured, he probably gets cut. Maybe brought back to the PS if they really like him
