Jordan Mathews - Vet WR

He started out his first three years with 2,673 yards and 19 TD's. (891 yards and 6 TD average).  He got traded and has made only 12 starts in the 4 years since.

You might be thinking injuries are the obvious answer but I don't think that's the case.  It looks like he had his fair share of them but most of them appear to run of the mill (knee scope, thumb fracture, hamstring, anke sprain).  I don't see anything major (ACL/MCL, achilies) listed.

I'll be interested to see if anyone gives him a shot at TE.  I'm assuming since he's making the switch that he's slowed considerably, otherwise I'm not sure why he would make the move.  I would also assume that he'll end up somewhere that won't use him much at all for blocking.

Jordan Matthew's was never fast. He had some build up speed but he was never a guy that explosive off the line.

Matthews played very well as a big slot and was a very good blocking receiver from that spot. He would be used similarly even listed as a "TE". Mostly he has added more routes to his game and position versatility as an F-TE/H-Back.
