Andre Carter: Wes Welker hit on Aqib Talib a "nasty play"

By , Reporter
New England Patriots defensive end Andre Carter believes that Wes Welker's hit on Aqib Talib in the AFC championship game was a "nasty hit".

New England Patriots defensive end Andre Carter believes that Denver Broncos wide receiver Wes Welker's hit on Aqib Talib was a "nasty play".

Welker, a former Patriot, knocked the 27-year-old out of the AFC championship game when he hit him while he was trying to cover Demaryius Thomas on a crossing route in the Broncos' win over Bill Belichick's side.

Carter told reporters: "When I saw it, just as a player in general, Wes, was he doing his job? I'm sure he was to a certain degree. I think the hit could've [been] cleaner. I've been around a lot of football to see that.

"At the end of the day, it was a nasty play. We'll see what the league does."

Welker played for the Patriots between 2007 and 2012.
