2025 Fantasy Outlook
A fifth-round pick in 2024 out of Wake Forest, Carson played only six games as a rookie due to shoulder woes that eventually required surgery in December. He looked healthy during the offseason program but suffered a hyperextended knee in late July that's expected to sideline him 4-to-6 weeks. With Trevon Diggs and 2025 third-round pick Shavon Revel both looking iffy for Week 1, though, Carson could be leaned on for significant snaps early in the season, assuming he's healthy.

Signed a four-year, $4.27 million contract with the Cowboys in May of 2024.
Questionable for Week 13
Carson (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Chiefs, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Carson popped up on Dallas' injury report Tuesday as a limited practice participant due to a hamstring issue, putting his availability for Thursday in question. He's been an impactful corner for the Cowboys over the last two weeks, recording six total tackles and two passes defensed during that span. If the second-year pro is sidelined in Week 13, expect rookie Shavon Revel to have an expanded role in Dallas' secondary.
