Sam also had the ring for a short time (longer than Déagol)
Fuck, probably Boromir too.
Tom Bombadil too.
Don't think he counts because the Ring had no power over him. So while he did have it briefly, he wasn't a "Ring bearer" any more than the river.
He had agency and consciously took and held the ring.
The river only had it because the ring abandoned Isildur, and it fell there.
Did he ever actually have the ring? I know he tried to take it from Frodo, but i don't think he succeeded. Unless i'm getting confused since i have watched the movies more recently than i have read the books...
Edit: totally forgot about outside moria. apparently i need to do a re-read AND a re-watch lol.
. I’d say this counts for sure.well, now i feel dumb. yes, that certainly counts.
