As a senior, he was ranked 12th in the nation as a dual-threat quarterback.
College career
Patrick decided to attend Georgia Tech, primarily to be closer to his oldest brother. During his college career, Patrick played four out of five years as quarterback. In 2004, he played backup quarterback to Reggie Ball. During that same year, he also qualified for the indoor 60 metres in track & field. He also went to the ACC Indoor Championship.
In 2005, Carter transferred to Louisville, which meant he had to sit out of athletics for the year. Instead of playing, he logged over 1,000+ hours with Habitat for Humanity and made many visits to children's hospitals.
In 2006, Carter resumed playing as a wide receiver, and started along with Harry Douglas, Gary Barnidge, Michael Bush, Brian Brohm, Breno Giacomini, Mario Urrutia and Bilial Powell. During this season, Carter averaged 5.9 yards per punt return, caught 5 passes for 68 yards, and 17 punt returns for 117 yards. He was listed as the fastest player on the team consistently posting 4.2s and 4.3s 40 yard dashes. When Brohm became injured, Carter was moved to quarterback. In the Orange Bowl that year, he threw the first touchdown pass (1st in Louisville BCS history) to running back Anthony Allen.
While at Louisville, Carter also set track & field records for 55 metres, 60 metres, and 200 metres dashes. During his senior year, he helped lead his team to win the Big East Track & Field Outdoor Championship.
During his tenure with the Dolphins where he played wide receiver, quarterback and defensive back, Carter was taught about preparing game plans with Offensive Coordinator Brian Daboll and worked under the supervision of Ike Hilliard, who was the assistant wide receivers coach at the time. Carter was also able to understand player development and how to expand the passing game based on a player's skills, learning from Karl Dorrell, who spent time as the Dolphins wide receivers coach (2008–2010) and quarterbacks coach (2011).
In Toronto, Carter was exposed to different ways of attacking coverages because of the differences in rules between the NFL and CFL such as what can be executed within the timing of the quarterback's play and the capabilities of the offensive line. This experience allows Carter to game plan differently.
