Records two touchdowns Carson totaled 11 rushes for 58 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 26-16 defeat to Connecticut.

Impact Prior to Week 12, Carson's 2025 season included two touchdowns. He doubled the TD tally Saturday. Air Force's recent games indicate that Carson may be RB2, behind Owen Allen yet over Kade Frew. If said role remains for him, his statistical upside will be much more promising. Air Force's team runs a lot with the ball, and Carson with increased opportunities likely provides an improved output.
