Prior to arriving in Chicago, Carter had appeared in 39 NFL games with seven starts in three seasons with the Eagles (2018) and Texans (2018-20). He recorded 34 receptions for 386 yards and averaged 9.5 yards on 59 punt returns and 21.8 yards on 45 kickoff returns.


Ware has played in 43 NFL games with 19 starts over five seasons with the Seahawks (2013) and Chiefs (2015-19). He has rushed for 1,631 yards and 11 touchdowns on 357 carries and caught 64 passes for 698 yards and two TDs. The LSU product has won two Super Bowl rings, with the Seahawks in 2013 and the Chiefs last year.


Ware's most productive season came in 2016 with the Chiefs when Bears coach Matt Nagy was Kansas City's offensive coordinator. Ware started all 14 games he played, rushing for 921 yards and three touchdowns on 214 carries and catching 33 passes for 447 yards and two TDs.


After missing the entire 2017 season with a knee injury he sustained in a preseason game, Ware returned to rush for 246 yards and 2 TDs on 51 carries and catch 20 passes for 224 yards with the Chiefs in 2018.


Ware signed with the Colts in 2019, but suffered an ankle injury and was released without appearing in a game. He rejoined the Chiefs late in the season, playing in three contests before being placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury—but he still won his second Super Bowl ring.
