Caleb Carlson brings elite leg strength and steady kickoff value to Wake Forest
Carlson looks like a clear special-teams weapon for Wake Forest, with a strong 2024 profile: 52 kickoffs for 3,279 yards, a 63.1-yard average, 37 touchbacks, and a long of 65 yards, after appearing in 12 games that season.[8] His game is built around power more than scoring volume, and EA Sports rates him at 86 kick power with 68 kick accuracy, which matches the tape-friendly profile of a dependable kickoff specialist.[6] For a team needing field-position help and a consistent leg, he is a useful fit; the main question is less upside than whether you want a specialist whose value comes from hidden yards rather than headline stats.[8][6]
