Matt Slauson Madden Career 2010-2019 - Peak 91 OVR
A sixth-round guard who outlasted almost everyone drafted ahead
Matt Slauson was the 193rd pick of the 2009 draft, a sixth-rounder out of Nebraska, and he outlasted almost everyone taken ahead of him. Over ten seasons he started 113 games at guard and center for the Jets, Bears, Chargers and Colts, doing it while managing a lifelong stutter that never slowed his work up front.
The honors fit an interior grinder: a spot on USA Today's All-Joe Team in 2014 and the Ed Block Courage Award in 2015. He tore a pectoral in 2014 and a biceps in 2017 and kept starting anyway. Madden pegged him at 67 as a rookie afterthought in the 2009 game, nudged him into the mid-70s with the Jets, then bumped him to a career-high 91 in the 2014 edition after his first year anchoring the Bears interior. The number eased back to 74 by 2018 as the injuries mounted.
