Elite edge-rushing legend, not a current Wofford linebacker
Robert Mathis is not a current Wofford Terriers player; the available records identify him as a retired NFL pass rusher who last played in 2016, finishing with 123.0 career sacks and an NFL-record 47 strip-sacks/forced fumbles combo. His defining strengths were explosive first-step burst, relentless motor, and game-changing disruption—especially in clutch moments—plus a proven knack for turning pressures into turnovers. If you are evaluating fit for a team today, the key takeaway is that his profile is a high-end, pressure-first linebacker/edge model, but he is not an active college athlete to recruit or project.
