Seeing as someone who merely touches a Neveilah becomes Tamei, why, in the following Pasuk, does the Torah need to add one who carries it?

1.

Rashi and Ramban: Because one who touches a Neveilah is not Metamei the clothes he is wearing, whereas one who carries it is. 1

2.

Rashbam and Bechor Shor (both in Pasuk 28: Because one who carries Neveilah becomes Tamei even if he is not touching it (provided he moves - Rashbam). 2

See Ramban DH 've'Hizkir', as to why the Torah is more stringent by Masa than by Maga.

But not if someone places a Neveilah on his shoulder and he stands still (Rashbam).
