Carlson ranked third among Bombers in receptions (17) and receiving yards (18) as a junior in 2025. He caught a touchdown and returned his lone punt 29 yards. Three of his 4.0 tackles were solo stops. When watching Carlson’s 11th-grade highlight video, it’s not difficult to see a path to a breakout season this coming fall. The first clip shows him running by the defensive back and then beating him for a contested catch. He looks comfortable on his long punt return with concentration and elusiveness in space on the second clip. On the third play, he takes a short pass and powers through a would-be tackler. The rest of the tape contains Carlson delivering as a well-rounded receiver with size and speed. He’s one to watch this coming campaign.
