Cade Klubnik recently showcased his skills at Clemson's pro day, catching the eyes of scouts from all 32 NFL teams. The former Tigers quarterback clocked a 4.65-second 40-yard dash and hit a 33.5-inch vertical jump, proving his ankle has bounced back after a tough senior season. As draft boards start to solidify, Klubnik is facing another big decision off the field.
His fiancée, Macey Matthews, shared a heartwarming Instagram story, revealing their wedding plans. The post featured a sparkling engagement ring and a message to Klubnik: “See you down the aisle in 100 days.”
This milestone comes at a pivotal time for Klubnik, who met Matthews back in high school in Texas. Their journey together has been marked by Matthews cheering him on from the sidelines, watching him grow into Clemson’s all-time leader in completions with 901.
As Klubnik navigates the pre-draft process, ESPN projects him as the ninth-ranked quarterback prospect, likely to be picked on Day 3 of the draft. He participated in the NFL Scouting Combine and returned to Clemson for his pro day, despite a senior season hampered by injuries that limited him to 16 touchdowns and six interceptions.
Matthews has been a steadfast supporter through it all. A senior at Clemson University’s Honors College, she's carving her own path in marketing, with experience in branding, digital strategy, and content creation. Despite dating one of Clemson’s standout athletes, she has kept a low profile, known for her grounded nature and strong faith.
Their wedding is set for late June, a few weeks after the draft concludes in late April. By then, Klubnik will know which NFL city he’ll call home, and Matthews is ready to join him on this next adventure. From high school sweethearts to college graduates and soon-to-be newlyweds, their story is just beginning as draft day looms.
