Cincinnati Bengals

2021

Carman was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round (46th overall) of the 2021 NFL draft. [13] On May 18, 2021, Carman signed his four-year rookie contract with Cincinnati. [14] Third-year veteran Jonah Williams remained the Bengals' starting left tackle, but the team found a place for Carman at right guard. He played all 17 games for Cincinnati in his rookie season, starting in six of them, and played in all four of the Bengals postseason games as well. [15]


2022

In 2022, Cincinnati signed free agent guard Alex Cappa and drafted guard Cordell Volson in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. Cappa was immediately assigned to play right guard, and Volson beat out Carman for the starting left guard position, [16] leaving Carman on the bench. However, when multiple injuries befell the Bengals late in the season, the team called on Carman to replace Williams at the left tackle position for the second half of its Wild Card Round playoff win against the Baltimore Ravens. [17] In a highly anticipated matchup with the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round, Carman and the patchwork offensive line put together a strong performance, generating 172 team rushing yards and allowing just one quarterback sack in a 27–10 win. [18]

2023

Carman began the 2023 season as the backup right tackle yet again behind Williams. He did not start a single game, and only played snaps in two games the whole season. [19]

2024

During the Bengals first preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carman would pick up three holding penalties along with one false start penalty in a 17–14 loss. Carman was waived by the Bengals on August 23, 2024. [20]

Miami Dolphins

On September 17, 2024, Carman signed with the Miami Dolphins practice squad. [21]
