CFL wide receiver Duron Carter is close to signing with the Indianapolis Colts, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Carter, the son of Hall of Famer Cris Carter, has reportedly drawn interest from 15 NFL teams since the end of the CFL season.
During his two seasons in the CFL, Carter caught 124 passes for 1,939 yards and 12 touchdowns.
His athleticism was never in question, and time in Canada seems to have helped his maturity, which has long been a concern for NFL teams.
I'm told the Colts have agreement with Duron Carter, free agent WR with tremendous potential. Don't expect an official confirmation til Feb
