Matlock was drafted by the Los Angeles Chargers in the sixth round, 200th overall, of the 2023 NFL draft.[5] In his rookie year Matlock played in 12 games and recorded 14 total tackles.
In his sophomore season, Matlock became a two-way player under new head coach Jim Harbaugh and became the team's starting fullback while continuing to play defensive tackle. Matlock previously had experience as a two-way player during his collegiate career as he occasionally played tight end in addition to his primary position of defensive end at Boise State.[6] In Week 1 of the 2024 season in his first game as a two way player, he played 18 offensive snaps, 16 defensive snaps, and 14 special teams snaps and did not log any other statistics in a 22-10 win against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Matlock recorded his first NFL reception for seven yards in a Week 4 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs.
