Wisconsin’s former DL turned NFL long snapper, not a current Badgers defensive lineman
Matt Katula is listed in available records as a former Wisconsin defensive lineman from the early 2000s who later became an NFL long snapper, so he is not a current Badgers DL. In the 2002 Wisconsin roster, he was a 6-6, 266-pound junior from Brookfield, and later reports note he made the rare switch from defensive line to long snapping, a sign of versatility and football IQ. If you’re evaluating him as a prospect today, the key takeaway is that his value came from adaptability and special-teams reliability, not current on-field college production.
