Carter signed a six-year, $30 million contract with the [[Washington Redskins]] as an unrestricted free agent on March 14, 2006. The Redskins moved Carter back to [[defensive end]], his natural position. In his first year with the Redskins, he had 56 total tackles and six sacks.  He showed much improvement in 2007, with 55 tackles, 10.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles. He also had a safety in a 34–3 win over the [[Detroit Lions]]. Carter's best season as a Redskin came in 2009 when he totalled 11 sacks. However, in 2010 the Redskins hired a new coach, [[Mike Shanahan]], who changed their [[4-3 defense]] to a 3-4 defense which required Carter to play outside linebacker. Carter was never fully comfortable with the move. By mid-season, and at Carter's request, the coaching staff had him playing from a three-point stance on passing downs.<ref>{{cite web|work=the-hogs.net|url=http://www.the-hogs.net/blogs/2011/01/07/leftovers-season-wrap-up/|title=Leftovers, Season Wrap-Up|date=January 11, 2011}}</ref> The Redskins released Carter on March 1, 2011.<ref>{{cite web|work=Redskins.com|url=http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Redskins-Release-Carter-Dockery/0255afb1-276a-46c7-a573-658f4c97ad0b|title=Redskins Release Carter, Dockery|last=Fitzgerald|first=Gary|date=March 1, 2011|access-date=September 18, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029191403/http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Redskins-Release-Carter-Dockery/0255afb1-276a-46c7-a573-658f4c97ad0b|archive-date=October 29, 2013|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}</ref>
