Jeremiah Mathis adds veteran tight-end value with Virginia roots and red-zone feel
Jeremiah Mathis is a Virginia tight end whose calling card has been versatility and trusted blocking, with early-career flashes as a receiver and touchdown target. In the 2012 season at Virginia, he played in eight games and caught 5 passes for 42 yards and a touchdown; earlier Virginia notes also credited him as a key blocker from the TE spot and a converted defender who settled into the position well. If you want a dependable, physical tight end who can do the dirty work and occasionally punish defenses underneath, Mathis fits the mold.
