His son, Jesse Matthews, is one of the most acrobatic wide receivers in the nation. A Christian High grad, Jesse is one of the first Aztecs to sign an NIL deal, with Lakeside Equipment Rental. The junior wideout will be attending events and providing social media content promoting the company, and also be able to sell autographs.
Jesse is a unique case because he didn’t receive a single Division-1 scholarship offer. He walked on at SDSU, earned a roster spot, and as soon as he got some playing time they couldn’t keep him off the field. Just last month, Matthews was named to the Pro Football Focus Preseason All-MWC Team.
