Packers hosting official pre-draft visit with Georgia Tech S Tariq Carpenter
The Green Bay Packers will host an official pre-draft visit with Georgia Tech safety Tariq Carpenter, according to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network.
The Packers could view Carpenter (6-2, 230) as a potential third safety option with positional versatility as a sub-package linebacker.
Carpenter, a four-year starter, played in 52 games with 41 starts. He produced 223 tackles, 6.5 tackles for losses, 22 pass breakups, four interceptions and three forced fumbles.
At the Senior Bowl, Carpenter worked as a linebacker. His best fit at the next level could be as an in-the-box linebacker on passing downs.
