Joe Mattingly is a seasoned Holy Cross trench piece with veteran size and program familiarity
Mattingly is a 6-5, 295-pound veteran offensive lineman who spent four seasons at Holy Cross, giving a team the kind of older, steadier presence coaches love on the interior and at tackle. In his 2019 season, Holy Cross’s line helped the offense average 345.8 total yards, 135.9 rushing yards, and 22.8 points per game, which fits the profile of a blocker who contributes to a functional, physical run game rather than flashy highlights. The appeal here is reliability, maturity, and size — the classic “you notice him most when he’s not there” lineman.
