A three-star athlete in high school, Carroll was recruited mostly by small schools including San Diego, then coached by Jim Harbaugh.[1] Carroll did not intend to play college football and enrolled at the University of Southern California, where his father was coaching. He graduated from USC in 2010 with a degree in psychology.[2]
Unsure of what to do after graduation, the younger Carroll was offered a job by his father to work for the Seattle Seahawks as a personnel assistant in the scouting department for one season before being named a defensive assistant in 2011.[3] Initially offered a coaching position in Jacksonville by former Seahawks defensive coordinator and newly hired head coach Gus Bradley, Carroll shifted to offensive assistant in 2013.[4][5] He was a member of the coaching staff that defeated the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII, giving Carroll his first Super Bowl victory.[6] He was promoted to assistant wide receivers coach in 2014, working with Kippy Brown and later Dave Canales.[7] Carroll served as the team's wide receivers coach from 2018 to 2021.[8]
On February 15, 2024, Carroll was named as the passing game coordinator for the Carolina Panthers.[9]
Carroll's father is Pete Carroll and his brother Brennan is currently the offensive coordinator at Washington. Carroll and his wife Anna have two sons.
