Part 9: TE Carson Sneed | 2026 Class Signees - Player Breakdowns

In this episode, we highlight Carson Sneed, a versatile tight end from Nashville, Tennessee, who plays at Donelson Christian Academy and brings a well-rounded athletic profile to UNC’s 2026 class.

Despite missing time during his senior year, Sneed still made an impact, recording two catches for 45 yards and a touchdown in limited action. His earlier seasons tell the real story of his potential. As a junior, he hauled in 38 receptions for 540 yards and six touchdowns, earning All-State honors in both his sophomore and junior years.

Sneed is a three-sport athlete, competing in football, basketball, and track — a combination that shows up in his fluid movement, coordination, and overall athletic upside. His combination of size, hands, and multi-sport background gives him the tools to develop into a reliable target and matchup piece in the college game.

There's also a family connection in Chapel Hill: his brother Dayton Sneed is already a member of the Tar Heel football program, adding to the continuity and familiarity as he arrives on campus.
