The 6-foot-2, 240-pound Carrington recently backed off his verbal from Florida State. He becomes commit No. 17 for the Sooners in the 2026 class.

Carrington adds to a Sooners class that the Rivals Industry previously ranked No. 21 nationally. He is the nation’s No. 50 defensive line recruit.

The defensive front is a point of emphasis for head coach Brent Venables and his staff in this cycle as Carrington joins defensive lineman Brian Harris in the fold along with edge rushers Jake Kreul, Daniel Norman and Matthew Nelson.
