Tristan Mattson is a clutch-leg weapon for CMU
In the 2024 season, Central Michigan kicker Tristan Mattson was one of the MAC’s most reliable pressure players: he hit 15 of 17 field goals, including a school-record 58-yarder in 2023 and three game-winners across his CMU career, and earned three conference special teams weekly honors in 2024. What makes him valuable isn’t just the leg strength; it’s the poise, consistency, and late-game confidence that show up when the game is on the line. He looks like the kind of kicker who can stabilize close games and quietly steal wins.
