Portland State’s all-time great anchor at center
Carvalho is best remembered as one of Portland State’s most decorated offensive linemen ever: a true freshman starter who switched from guard to center and still became a two-time consensus All-American, three-time First Team All-Big Sky pick, and the 2007 Rimington Trophy winner. His defining traits were versatility, durability, and high-end line intelligence—he started 39 straight games and translated that consistency into pro and arena-football opportunities. If you want a battle-tested interior lineman who brings leadership, technique, and reliability, he was exactly that.
