Matt Lehr
Matthew Steven Lehr (born April 25, 1979) is an American former professional football player who was a guard in the National Football League (NFL) for the Dallas Cowboys, St. Louis Rams, Atlanta Falcons, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints. He played college football for the Virginia Tech Hokies and was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round of the 2001 NFL draft.
Lehr attended Woodbridge High School, where he was a two-way player at offensive guard and defensive end. He was a three-time All-District and All-Northwest selection. As a junior, he received second-team All-state honors.
As a senior, he posted 40 tackles and 6 sacks, while being named to the All-state team. He was also an All-State selection in the shot put.
Lehr accepted a football scholarship from Virginia Tech. He appeared in 4 games as a freshman. The next year, he missed the first 2 games with an ankle injury, and became a starter at guard in the 10th game of the season against Rutgers University, blocking for quarterback Michael Vick.
As a junior, he was the regular starter at left guard, on a team that played in the BCS National Championship Game against Florida State University. He allowed only one sack and 3 quarterback pressures, leading the team with 57 knockdown blocks.
As a senior, he helped his team break the conference's rushing record with 270.5 rushing yards-per-game, which was also set by Virginia Tech the previous year. He surrendered only half a sack and 5 quarterback pressures, leading the team with 57 knockdown blocks.
Lehr was selected in the fifth round (137th overall) of the 2001 NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Although he only played guard in college, he was expected to be the eventual replacement for Mark Stepnoski at center.
Lehr struggled during his time with the Cowboys because he lacked size and strength. As a rookie, he played eight games as a backup guard. In 2002, he was beat by Andre Gurode for the starting center position and Lehr remained mainly as a backup at guard and center, making 4 starts (2 in each position).
