Dale Matthews brings veteran linebacker instincts and playmaking flair to Richmond
Dale Matthews is a proven, high-impact linebacker for Richmond, and in the 2018 season he ranked among the team’s top tacklers with 54 stops, 6.0 tackles for loss, a sack, and two interceptions, including a pick-six-worthy return in a win over Virginia[1][7]. He also earned the Capital Cup MVP in 2018, a nice little neon sign that he showed up in big moments[11]. His calling card is feel for the ball and downhill disruption—more playmaker than compile-and-go-home tackler—and that kind of edge is exactly what coaches love when they want a defensive tone-setter[4][7].
