Matthew Boydell brings Ivy-sized upside: long, active linebacker with developmental room
In the 2025 season, Matthew Boydell entered Dartmouth as a first-year linebacker at 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds, later listed at 221 pounds on the 2026 roster, with a background as a first-team All-League high school defender and sectional/ regional champion. His appeal is the frame, physical upside, and early special-teams/development profile rather than box-score production; public college game-log data shows no recorded game stats yet. For a team, that means a tough, academic-first prospect with some swagger in the run game and plenty of runway to grow into an every-down linebacker.
