Matthew Rea
- ... that gridiron football fullback Matthew Rea was selected in the 2015 CFL Draft despite playing only three games as a backup fullback in college?

The article is new enough and just barely long enough at 1,537 characters per the DYK checker tool. I spot-checked half of the references and found only one little glitch: the source for his Penn Quakers years doesn't say Rea was in a backup role. The references for the hook fact all verify the statement and are from reliable sources, and the QPQ review is complete, so I'd say this should be ready after that one little issue is cleaned up.

- Template:Replyto Thanks for the review! I believe the second in-line cite on that sentence does verify the back-up status. See in-line cite #6. ~ RobTalk 17:16, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
- That's for the hook fact, and you're correct that his backup status is mentioned. What I meant was him being a backup at Penn, which is sourced by cite #2. I didn't see his reserve status made clear there; I also looked at an article on the Quakers website that was linked there, but it wasn't helpful. Giants2008 (Talk) 17:23, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
