Matthews and the Falcons agreed on a two-year, $45 million contract extension with $38 million guaranteed Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Matthews has exited Sunday's game against the Colts with a knee injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Ideally-sized for the NFL O-line, and a proven producer. Smart and knowledgeable, and can excel at either left tackle or right tackle. Does an especially great job opening holes for the run game. Brings excellent maturity, character, leadership qualities, and bloodlines to the line. Needs to improve his mobility to show he can pass-block as well as he run-blocks in the pro game. May need to narrow his focus a little to get the most out of his star potential in the NFL. Might take a little while adapting to explosive edge rushers.
Long Range Potential: Top-tier talent at offensive tackle.
