Shakhi Carson brings versatile, all-purpose depth to Stony Brook’s backfield
Carson is a compact, multi-use running back whose value goes beyond raw rushing totals: in 2024 he played 11 games for Stony Brook, rushing for 111 yards on 37 carries while adding 101 receiving yards and 24 kick-return yards, showing he can help on offense and in the return game. His profile suggests a role player with versatility, explosiveness in space, and special-teams utility rather than a pure volume runner, and his earlier 2023 season was shortened by injury, which matters when weighing durability and workload fit. He looks best for a team that wants a flexible, lower-ego depth back who can create hidden yardage.[4][1]
