Jaison Carriger brings early-career upside and old-school versatility to Montana
Carriger is a young Montana tight end whose profile is more about projection than volume: in the 2026 season, he has 1 reception for 12 yards, but that tiny sample only hints at the kind of developmental role he fits—physical, flexible, and useful in multiple alignments. He also comes with a notable backstory: a Butte standout who walked on at Utah State before transferring to Montana, and whose Griz career was previously interrupted by injury, which makes durability and role fit part of the evaluation. If you want a TE who can grow into a tougher, high-motor complementary piece, he’s a name worth watching.
