Buffalo LB Mathew Hilty brings special-teams value and veteran grit
Mathew Hilty is a 5-11, 220-pound graduate linebacker at Buffalo whose value has come more from consistency and impact moments than box-score volume; in 2024 he appeared in all 13 games mostly on special teams, posting three tackles and a blocked punt, while injuries limited him to four games in 2025. His profile suggests a tough, high-effort fit who can help in coverage, punt pressure, and depth roles, and his psychology background plus track-and-field experience hint at an athlete who understands preparation and physical versatility.
