Mathieu Beaudoin (born November 9, 1974) is a Canadian former professional football lineman who played one season with the BC Lions of the Canadian Football League (CFL). He was selected by the Lions in the second round of the 1999 CFL draft after playing college football at Syracuse University.
Mathieu Beaudoin was born on November 9, 1974, in Montreal.[1] He was a member of the Syracuse Orange of Syracuse University from 1995 to 1998.[1] He was a letterman in 1998.[2] Beaudoin was originally a defensive tackle at Syracuse but converted to offensive tackle before his senior year.[3] He only played in eight games during his college career, including two as a senior.[3] Due to injuries at tight end, Beaudoin played both offensive tackle and tight end in the November 21, 1998 game against Temple, wearing jersey number 75 at tackle and 91 at tight end.[4][3] He was the No. 4 offensive tackle on the depth chart in 1998.[3] To the surpise of local media, Beaudoin announced that he was skipping his senior year to enter the 1999 NFL draft.[3][5] The Post-Standard speculated that he may have entered the NFL draft in order to enhance his CFL value.[5]
