Duron Carter (born March 22, 1991) is a Canadian football wide receiver for the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League (CFL). Carter was a member of the Montreal Alouettes prior to signing with Saskatchewan on January 25, 2017 as a free agent. He is the son of Pro Football Hall of Fame player Cris Carter, and played college football at Ohio State and Coffeyville Community College, but off-field issues and academic ineligibility prevented him continuing to play in Division I football. He also attended Alabama and Florida Atlantic but did not play in a game for either school. He entered the 2013 NFL Draft but was not selected. Carter had a tryout for the Minnesota Vikings in 2013, but was not offered a contract. He then played two years with the Alouettes before signing with the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League (NFL).
Carter attended St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he played football, basketball, and ran track. Playing as a wide receiver for Coach George Smith, he led the St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders to back-to-back Florida state 5A titles in 2007 and 2008. The Raiders 15-0 record earned them No. 1 ranking in America among prep teams. He recorded 39 receptions for 739 yards and 14 touchdowns as a senior, and was selected to play in the Under Armour All-America Game. Carter earned first-team All-Broward honors and was an Orlando Sentinel All-Southern. While at St. Thomas, Carter was teammates with Phillip Dorsett, who would become his Indianapolis Colts teammate in 2015.
