Holman was recruited by the Carlton Football Club with its third round selection, pick 51 overall, in the 2013 national draft.[1] He spent most of the 2014 season playing with Carlton's VFL-affiliate, the Northern Blues, and he made his senior debut for Carlton against Port Adelaide in round 22, 2014.[3]

After nine matches in two seasons, he was delisted at the conclusion of the 2015 season.[4] He then made a move to the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) where he played for the Central District Football Club in 2016 and 2017.
