Physical, disruptive Georgia State corner with playmaking upside
DeMarius Matthews profiles as a tough, production-driven cornerback whose 2013 Georgia State season showed real impact: 47 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, 1 interception, 2 forced fumbles, and a team-best 6 pass breakups.[1] His value goes beyond the box score—he flashes run support, creates turnovers, and can make offenses pay for testing him underneath.[1] At 5-9, 162-165 pounds, he was viewed as a speed-and-power athlete coming out of McEachern, suggesting quickness and competitive burst rather than pure size.[2][5] If your team wants an energetic, gritty DB who brings edge and ball production, he’s worth a look.[1][2]
