Jordan Matthews Joins Panthers Practice Squad rotoballer.com Wed 10/25/23 10:24 AM

Veteran wide receiver/tight end Jordan Matthews signed with the Carolina Panthers as a member of the practice squad on Wednesday. The 31-year-old last played for the Philadelphia Eagles in 2019, catching four passes for 33 yards in two games. Matthews once posted a 997-yard season, but that was in 2015. In 2023, there's little to no chance he becomes fantasy-relevant, and it's probably a long shot for him to even join the active roster this season. The Vanderbilt alum can be ignored for fantasy ...

Jordan Matthews Returns To 49ers rotoballer.com Thu 2/3/22 3:11 PM

The San Francisco 49ers re-signed tight end Jordan Matthews to a Reserve/Futures contract on Wednesday. Matthews, originally drafted in the second round as a wide receiver by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2014, has been with the 49ers since the 2019 season. However, he's been active for only four total games and played only four special teams snaps in his lone game in 2021 in Week 8 against the Chicago Bears. The 29-year-old will merely be competing for a spot on the active roster in training camp...

Jordan Matthews To Work Out As A Tight End rotoballer.com Wed 7/14/21 2:20 PM

Free-agent ex-wide receiver Jordan Matthews has added 15-plus pounds and will work out this weekend as a tight end for NFL scouts in San Diego. Matthews attended tight end University and has also been working out in Nashville with a group of tight ends that included George Kittle and Robert Tonyan. The 28-year-old entered the NFL in 2014 out of Vanderbilt as a second-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles. He spent three years in Philly before going to the Buffalo Bills in 2017. Matthews had ...

49ers Release Jordan Matthews rotoballer.com Tue 12/8/20 9:02 PM

The San Francisco 49ers released wide receiver Jordan Matthews from the practice squad on Tuesday. Matthews never made it to San Francisco's active roster this year despite all of their injuries to key skill players. He played in just three games in 2019 -- two with the Eagles and one with the Niners -- catching four passes on 12 targets for 33 yards. Matthews' best three seasons came in his first three NFL seasons with the Eagles from 2014-2016 after he was a second-round pick out of ...

Jordan Matthews With Forgettable Day rotoballer.com Sun 11/24/19 7:13 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews had three catches for 27 yards on six targets in Week 12 against the Seattle Seahawks. Even with the number of injuries at the position, Matthews is still not producing enough to enter lineups. He could be worth flex consideration next week against the Miami Dolphins, but he hasn't produced enough to put much confidence in.

Jordan Matthews Not on the Fantasy Radar for Week 12 rotoballer.com Wed 11/20/19 2:27 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews is not on the fantasy radar for Week 12. Even with seemingly a handful of Eagles receivers injured, Matthews still only caught one pass in Week 11. More of the same is likely for Week 12 against the Seattle Seahawks. There's always a chance his one catch could come in the end zone, but there's nothing bankable about Matthews this week that makes him a legitimate fantasy asset.

Jordan Matthews Catches Just One Pass in Week 11 rotoballer.com Sun 11/17/19 8:12 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews was targeted six times in Week 11 but only came up with one catch, gaining six yards. Matthews was forced into a larger role with Alshon Jeffery (ankle) inactive, but he wasn't able to really do anything with the opportunity. Working as merely a depth piece and a warm body on the field, Matthews should only be rostered in the deepest fantasy formats.

Eagles Signing Jordan Matthews rotoballer.com Wed 11/6/19 1:14 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles are signing free-agent wide receiver Jordan Matthews on Wednesday, according to a source. This comes with DeSean Jackson (abdomen) officially done for the year after undergoing core muscle surgery this week. Matthews started his career with Philly from 2014 to 2016, and he also played 14 games with the Eagles last year. He'll provide depth behind Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor, Mack Hollins and rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, but it's unlikely that Matthews will be a ...

49ers To Re-Sign Jordan Matthews rotoballer.com Thu 10/3/19 5:30 PM

The San Francisco 49ers are planning to re-sign wide receiver Jordan Matthews, according to league sources. He's expected to take rookie Jalen Hurd's (back) spot on the roster after he was put on Injured Reserve. Matthews didn't make the club's final roster this summer, so he's unlikely to make much of an impact in the offense despite the Niners receiving corps not being much to look at. The 27-year-old caught just 20 passes for 300 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games for the Eagles in 2018. He...

Jordan Matthews Needs A New Home rotoballer.com Mon 9/2/19 4:49 PM

The San Francisco 49ers cut wide receiver Jordan Matthews over the weekend. The six-year pro registered just 45 yards in the preseason as he tried to make his third team in as many seasons. While the Niners staff heaped praise on Matthews, the decision was ultimately made to keep receivers that also contributed on special teams. Once an ascending talent with over 2,600 receiving yards in his first three seasons, Matthews will look outside of San Francisco to revitalize his career.
