Personal notes:
My full name is Robert Nathan Mathis. In the off season I try to get involved in charity work. I have assisted the Indianapolis Public Schools Foundation with their annual "Food 4 Thought" fundraiser...I’ve hosted a fundraiser for Boys and Girls Club of Huntsville, Ala. and I also contribute to college and high school sports programs. Right now I’m hosting an annual summer football camp for children ages 7-18 at the University of Indianapolis, in Indianapolis. See my community page for more information on that. In college was a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc, Nu Epsilon Chapter.
