Lewis Carter brings veteran tackle production and sideline-to-sideline juice to UCF
In the 2025 season, Lewis Carter showed he can be a steady, active linebacker, piling up 92 tackles for UCF with 4.0 tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and an interception, while earning an expanded leadership role entering 2026. He’s the kind of fit coaches like because he combines production with range, urgency, and experience in multiple systems after transferring from Oklahoma. If you need a linebacker who plays fast, communicates well, and can be trusted to set the tone, Carter checks that box with some swagger.
