steady, sturdy interior lineman who quietly earned trust at Michigan
In his Michigan career, Matthew Godin was a dependable rotational DT who became a quieter-than-flashy but trusted starter, finishing with 54 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, and 3 sacks across 41 games. His value was consistency, durability, and assignment discipline rather than splash plays—he started 16 games and, in 2016, quietly started all but one game while posting 26 tackles and a sack. He fits best for teams that want a reliable, experienced interior defender who plays with solid technique and low-maintenance consistency rather than elite disruption.
