Texas adds Stanford transfer walk-on at RB
The Texas Longhorns have made an addition to the 2025 football roster with sophomore running back Carson Berger joining the team as a walk on, filling an opening created when Reid Watkins entered the NCAA transfer portal this spring after receiving four carries for 15 as a true freshman.
Watkins is now on scholarship at South Dakota.
A 6'0, 216-pounder, Berger joins the Texas program after walking on as an inside linebacker at Stanford in 2023, as first noted by Inside Texas.
Classified as a sophomore, Berger played running back and linebacker on two state champion teams at the John Cooper School in the Woodlands, earning all-state and defensive MVP honors in addition to serving as the team's captain while setting school records for tackles (96), tackles for loss (28), and bench press.

Berger took visits to Northwestern and Duke and camped at Tulsa before committing to Stanford as a walk on.
