Jackson Carman: Bengals Rookie For All Seasons On And Off Field
Cincinnati Bengals
Geoff Hobson
Jason Krause, the Fairfield High School head coach who moved Jackson Carman from defense to offense his sophomore year, often ended up amazed at the result.
Such as those screen passes when the 300 or so pound man-child would glide through an open field and latch his hands on those supposedly more agile defensive backs. Maybe even more impressive were the Dart calls, where the tackle would pull and there would be the 6-5 Jackson barreling into a space before jettisoning a linebacker into space. To come from the left to the right side, to wrap all the way around the other side to square up on a guy, Krause still wonders, and, in our conference, finish a linebacker on his back. Every time we ran Dart, I feel that happened.
