Clemson cornerback Ryan Carter spoke with the media on Tuesday for the first time since being knocked out of Saturday’s game against Florida State.

Carter was hit by FSU linebacker Emmett Rice during a punt in the third quarter of the Tigers’ win, and Rice was ejected for the helmet-to-helmet hit.

Carter stayed down for a few minutes before being helped off the field with an apparent concussion.

“When it first happened, I didn’t even realize I was injured until they were walking me off the field. It was definitely a scary moment because that has never happened to me before.
