Ryan Carter gives Idaho State a proven, high-volume long snapper with special-teams value
Carter’s appeal is reliability: Idaho State lists him as a long snapper specialist who played in 8 games in 2025 after appearing in 3 games in 2024, and the Bengals note he helped anchor a special-teams unit that ranked No. 1 in NCAA net punting and led the Big Sky in special teams. That kind of specialist continuity matters because it reduces hidden-game volatility on snaps, punts, and field goals. If you want a steady, experience-based add with clear special-teams upside, he fits the profile.
