Clay Matthews can't believe the Packers already gave out his number

Clay Matthews might play for the Los Angeles Rams now, but he’ll be known as a member of the Green Bay Packers when he retires. That is, unless they’ve already forgotten he exists.

Matthews seemed surprised to find out that might be the case. The Packers didn’t wait long to hand out Matthews’ jersey number to another player.

The team tweeted out a picture of Rashan Gary — who the Packers selected in the first round of the 2019 NFL draft. In the photoshopped picture Gary is wearing a No. 52 jersey.

This doesn’t appear to be a situation where the Packers accidentally chose a picture of Matthews to photoshop.
