Carter was shot in the stomach late Thursday night in Charlotte and was briefly hospitalized, per the reports. The wound did not require surgery.
"I'm good. I'm OK," Carter told The Athletic on Saturday. "I can walk and everything."
Carter did not go into details about what led to the shooting. It's unclear if any arrests have been made. Auburn said it was aware of the incident.
Carter recorded four tackles in nine games with Auburn this past season, his first at the school and final season overall.
"I'm done with football," he told The Athletic. "After this season at Auburn, that's when I decided I was gonna no longer be playing sports."
