Only a 2031 prospect, Carl separated himself as one of the top athletes at the PA Classic event this past weekend. Excelling on both sides of the ball, Carl lined up as the safety for his defense and did a phenomenal job keeping the play in front of him, never giving opposing offenses the opportunity for large chunk plays. With his head on a swivel and feet constantly moving, Carl picked up any receiver entering his territory. He put his skills on display when his quick play recognition allowed him to jump a route across the middle, nearly picking it off and going the other direction. As a receiver, Carl is very twitchy and even more dangerous once the ball is in his hands. Carl is setting himself up for a very bright future.

Carl Lomax Carl Lomax 5'10" | 154 lbs | ATH NJ was one of the more electric backs to watch throughout the event, consistently flashing traits that translate directly to game speed. His lateral movement was quick, clean, and rhythmic, allowing him to change direction on a dime without losing momentum. Long legged and fluid, he showed decisive cuts and an efficient running style that can keep defenders guessing and off balance.

What really separated Carl was his motor. He has an engine that doesn’t quit, and it showed on every rep. That effort, paired with his movement skills, made him a serious problem in coverage as he had multiple moments where linebackers were left trying to play catchup while he ran routes. It’s no surprise he earned MVP votes from both scouts and coaches, as his performance checked every box for a dynamic, high impact back.
