Matlock has very good top-end speed.  He is a very decisive, one-cut runner who wastes no time getting vertical and displays tremendous breakaway if he finds a crease.  He is also a dynamic return man in space.

After a strong freshman year Matlock transferred to Columbus East. He’s a smaller but uber athletic cornerback.  His athleticism is on full display as he shows off a smooth backpedal and fluid hips as he transitions to turn and run.  He has an explosive break that he uses to make plays on the ball.  The athletic skillset is there for Matlock, he just needs to continue getting bigger and stronger.  With a strong summer camp and fall seasons, Matlock could start to blow up.
