Professional career

2005 NFL Combine

Mathis recorded the third fastest, 40 time (4.26 seconds) ever at the NFL Combine. Only to be broken by Chris Johnson in 2008 and John Ross in 2017. His time was tied by Dri Archer in 2014. [2]

Houston Texans

In his rookie season with the Texans, he was selected to the Pro Bowl for the AFC to be their starter as a kick returner. He was one of three rookies (Shawne Merriman, linebacker, of the San Diego Chargers and Lofa Tatupu, linebacker, of the Seattle Seahawks, being the others) selected to be participants in the game.

Mathis fractured his left foot in January 2006 during the Pro Bowl, but it wasn't discovered until OTA's months later. He was expected to miss only four months, but instead missed six months.[3] He returned to practice in November 2006 after missing the first nine games of the season.[4] He was later placed on Injured Reserve. Mathis then played in only three games in 2007 even returning one kick for a touchdown before once again being place on Injured Reserve.

Mathis was a restricted free agent following the 2007 season; the Texans declined to offer him another contract.

Washington Redskins

On April 4, 2008, Mathis was signed by the Washington Redskins. He was waived by the team on May 15.

Toronto Argonauts

Mathis signed with the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League on May 11, 2009,[5] and was hoped to replace the loss of Dominique Dorsey to the NFL as kick returner on special teams[6] but was hampered by injuries and cut at the end of training camp.[7][8] He was re-signed on September 17. On November 6, 2009, Mathis was released by the Argonauts.

Pittsburgh Power

Mathis signed with the Pittsburgh Power of the Arena Football League on January 4, 2011.[9] Mathis had a career game on June 11, 2011 against the Tampa Bay Storm, setting new Power single-game franchise records for yards receiving (195), longest reception (46 yards), and longest kick return (57 yards). He also tied Mike Washington's single-game franchise record with 12 receptions and had the first kick return touchdown in Power history. Mathis played in 9 games for the Power, catching 30 passes for 418 yards and 7 touchdowns. He also returned 31 kickoffs for 688 yards and 1 touchdown.
