Nolan Carroll

Nolan Carroll is a young and talented defensive back for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League. He was selected in the 5th round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Miami Dolphins from the University of Maryland.

The Miami Dolphins selected Carroll in the fifth round of the 2010 NFL Draft with the 145th overall pick. Carroll was considered one of the team’s most promising rookies, and saw action on special teams during the preseason. In Week 4, he handled kickoff return duties against the New England Patriots. Carroll was part of an improved Miami special teams unit two weeks later against the Green Bay Packers, a game in which he averaged 26.0 yards per kickoff return.

On December 13, 2010, Carroll was a central part of one of the more infamous plays of the 2010 NFL season. With the Dolphins facing their rival New York Jets, New York Jets strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi extended his knee to trip Carroll as he ran down the sidelines as a gunner on punt coverage duties. Ex-Miami Dolphin Zach Thomas later found out that Alosi had ordered a wall formed on the edge of the coaching box, prompting the Jets to suspend Alosi indefinitely. In the same game, Carroll recorded the 1st career NFL interception of his career when he picked off Jets’ quarterback Mark Sanchez. Carroll has a bright future ahead of him.
