The Badgers offered Jaedon Matthews, a three-star running back from Saguaro, Arizona on Monday. The 5-foot-10 athlete is a junior in high school and would be a member of the class of 2024 wherever he ends up.
Wisconsin became his seventh Division 1 offer and his first from Big Ten program. With Braelon Allen entering his third season with the Badgers in 2023, Matthews could be a part of the next chapter if Allen were to elect to move on to the NFL following his junior year.
So far, the Badgers have secured two commitments for the class of 2024, bringing in four-star quarterback Mabrey Mettauer (The Woodlands, Texas) and cornerback Austin Alexander (Chicago Heights, Illinois) already.
After a great conversation with @Im_MikeB I am blessed to receive an offer from Wisconsin University. @WisFBRecruiting @BadgerFootball Thank you @ZakHill10 @CoachMMartinez @saguarofootball @lmzworld_ @JUSTCHILLY @GregBiggins @ChadSimmons_ @bangulo @BrandonHuffman @adamgorney pic.twitter.com/PDG4ROprdT
