Falcons tackle Jake Matthews sticks up for draft hopeful, baby brother

Don't mess with the Matthews family.

Jake Matthews, the Atlanta Falcons' starting left tackle and former No. 6 overall pick out of Texas A&M, has a problem with those doubting his little brother.

Mike Matthews, a center out of A&M, was not invited to the combine and has been projected as a lower-round draft pick. Jake Matthews made clear in a tweet how he feels about such projections.

Proud of baby bro for balling at his pro day. Can't wait to watch him prove the combine "experts" wrong. #riseup pic.
