Cowboys Legend Tony Romo Sadly Kicks The Bucket @44 Diggs, Bland, and JLew will require depth if Gilmore decides not to re-sign. Since teams are using more than a three-wide receiver set, Scott or Carson will see the field unless they provide the coaching staff with an excuse to bench them.
When Carson joined the club in his rookie season, a teammate made fun of him for “always locking somebody up.” However, now that he’s in the NFL with the Cowboys, Carson says he intends to earn back the nickname.
The 22-year-old rookie stated, “I don’t think you’re a corner, or whatever you are if you don’t tackle.” “It completes you as a player.”
He typically lined up at the wide corner in college, but he often went inside when necessary. He moved around for a few games in 2023, essentially splitting the snaps 50/50.
Carson told reporters during the rookie minicamp, “That was a big thing with them drafting me and people who were looking at me in the draft.” “I think I can demonstrate my versatility by being able to play both indoors and outdoors.”
Carson recorded 14 pass deflections and two interceptions during that 2021–2022 period. becoming a third-year player in 2022 and being named to the All-ACC third team.
Carson had a career-high eight interceptions in 2023 in addition to 42 tackles, one tackle for loss, and one forced fumble. The Reese’s Senior Bowl invited him.
He pleased evaluators in positional exercises on his pro day and recorded strong physical results, including a 40-yard sprint time of 4.53 seconds and a vertical jump of 35.5 inches.
I’ve read that he’s a decent press man corner. Wright will have a fantastic chance to leave his imprint on this coaching staff and gain some playing time if he is not selected for the squad.
