Read EvaluationPatton Fitzpatrick | Prep Redzone Scout
Matheny is a 6’1, 165 lbs defensive back out of Evergreen Park. Throughout his sophomore campaign, Matheny showcased his cover skills from a single high safety position. He is a long and rangy free safety who has the athleticism to cover from hash to hash. Matheny has the ability to bait quarterbacks into throwing the ball up the seam. From there, Matheny’s speed allows him to undercut throws and take the ball away. As he continues to develop, Matheny is a big time safety prospect in the Class of 2026.
