It might feel like a lifetime for Matt Carrick , the time he spent at Michigan State . But it has only been six years since the 2017 Perry High School graduate began his college football journey with the Spartans. Carrick packed a lot into those six years: He earned two bachelor’s degrees, is working his way to a master’s and overcame assorted injuries to play 47 total games. Along the way, he played for two head coaches in a program that played in four bowl games, won 10 games twice and reached a national ranking as high as No. 5 during his time with the Spartans. Now, Carrick is focused on the 2023 NFL Draft and earning an opportunity he has dreamed of pursuing since he was 5 years old. “Right now at this point in my career, I’m good enough to play on Sundays,” Carrick said. “That has always been a dream for me.” My journey continues.. pic.twitter.com\/T8Y3xh3J4A<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
