Butler’s Matthew Oudeman: compact, sturdy interior piece with real run-stuffing value
Oudeman enters the 2026 season as a senior DL for Butler and has already shown he can be a reliable rotational presence: in 2025 he appeared in nine games and recorded three total tackles, all assists. At 6-foot-0, 285 pounds, he brings a low, sturdy build that suggests leverage and gap control over flashy splash plays, and his profile points to a physical, assignment-sound defender who can help a team’s interior depth. He’s also been recognized on Butler’s 2022 PFL Academic Honor Roll, which hints at the kind of dependable, coach-friendly character teams like.
