is a two-way star that will double as Perry’s top option in the passing game and a linebacker that has emerged as one of the better prospects in the state’s 2025 class. Last season, Carson was hands down Perry’s top target in the passing game. He led the team with over 50 catches for over 1,100 yards and ten touchdowns. That kind of production is enough to get our attention but when you add in that he also finished the year with nearly 130 tackles and has become a very intriguing linebacker prospect with his size and ability to move, he’ll be one of the top players in 2A-1 this fall.

for a few months but last month was our first chance to see him in person at the Harrah team camp. He immediately passed the eye test and looked like one of the best linebackers in attendance that day. Carson has good size, speed and flies around the field. He checks a lot of the boxes and might be flying under the radar right now as a prospect. But you can’t argue with his size and production because there aren’t many questions about him as a prospect. He’s your prototypical linebacker and should have an opportunity to play at the next level.
