GREEN BAY – Clay Matthews was in this position two weeks ago, fully expecting to return from his hamstring injury and get back on the field.
Now he just needs to survive the final steps.
Matthews had a rehab setback two weeks ago Friday, and it forced him to sit out the past two games. All he could surmise was he did “a little too much” in his final preparation, a turn of events that was “tough to swallow.”
Barring another setback, he plans to be out there Sunday night at Washington after missing three straight games and now four total on the season.
