Carter Hewitt brings proven FCS production and early-down toughness to UTRGV’s secondary
Hewitt is a physical, experienced defender with a track record of production: at Northern Iowa in the 2024 season, he started all 12 games and posted 52 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss and 1 sack, earning preseason All-MVFC recognition. His appeal is less about flash than reliability—he’s the kind of tone-setting, assignment-sound player who can stabilize a defense and add edge on contact. If UTRGV wants a DB who competes hard, tackles consistently and brings proven game experience, Hewitt looks like a strong fit.
