A speedy, explosive wide receiver in Newnan, Matthews is just a sophomore but is playing like one of the top wide receivers in the Atlanta-area right now. He’s a big-play machine averaging an impressive 22.8 yards per catch with five touchdowns through the first half of the season. He’s terrific after the catch and has hauled in 28 passes for 637 yards. His recruitment has taken off over the last two months and he earned a new offer this weekend from the in-state Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Right now, the 6-foot-0 185-pounder is ranked as the No. 3 WR and the No. 17 overall prospect in the state for the 2028 class. Don’t be surprised to see more offers head his way over the next several weeks and into the winter.
