Carson Lawrence gives Vanderbilt a long, physical safety with real upside
In the 2025 season, Carson Lawrence showed early rotational value for Vanderbilt, finishing with 9 tackles and 1 pass breakup, while buzz around the program has centered on his 6-foot-2 length, downhill trigger, and willingness to hit in the box[7][9]. He entered campus as one of Vanderbilt’s highest-rated modern signees and was ranked among the top safeties nationally in recruiting, which matters because his profile suggests a legit multi-year starter if the coverage instincts keep catching up to the athletic tools[1][4][11].
