2019 Season Breakdown:

The last unrestricted free agent that we have left to talk about (though there are several restricted and exclusive rights free agents) is Tyler Matakevich, a tackling machine out of Temple who has lasted four seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers after carving out a niche for himself as a core special teams player.

Not only is he among the league leaders in special teams tackles made over the course of the past four years, he has also blocked or partially blocked multiple punts on special teams.
