Carson Beck’s college football journey and break out of the 2023 season
The two-time national champion joined hands with the Bulldogs in 2020.

Along with the National Championship, he has several awards, including SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week. In his last game in 2023, he scored 3,941 passing yards and 28 touchdowns.
