Matthew Mulligan knows he has been a fortunate soul.
He played nine years as a tight end in the NFL despite not playing football until his sophomore year in college. He played soccer at Penobscot Valley High School in Howland because the school didn’t offer football. He took it up when he was at Husson University, then blossomed after he transferred to the University of Maine for his final two seasons.
