versatile Cincinnati linebacker with proven game reps and disruptive flashes
Craig Carey offers value as an experienced, assignment-sound defender who has already logged meaningful snaps for Cincinnati, including an all-12-games season with 15 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, and 1.5 sacks in 2009[3]. His differentiator is versatility and toughness: reports and roster history show a player trusted in multiple roles, with enough burst to create negative plays while still holding up in the flow of the defense[3][6]. For a staff looking for a dependable, physical linebacker who brings effort, maturity, and a lower-drama fit, Carey checks the box.
