Matt Hennessy is best suited for a Shanahan wide zone run-heavy scheme that prioritizes athletic offensive linemen capable of reaching and cutting off defenders.
He can immediately compete for a starting center spot, potentially developing into a high-level, consistent zone blocker.
He would struggle in a gap/power scheme that asks for sustained, brute-force blocking rather than agility.
His athleticism and movement skills are ideal for a center in a zone-blocking scheme, allowing him to excel in reach blocks and pulling assignments.
Selected #78 overall in Round 3 of the 2020 NFL Draft by Atlanta Falcons out of Temple.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
