Robert Mathis still teaching Colts' pass-rushers to 'hate' QBs

WESTFIELD, Ind. -- The desire to coach, to teach defensive players his tomahawk chop and to “hate” quarterbacks still burns for former Indianapolis Colts pass-rush specialist Robert Mathis.

But Mathis also missed being able to spend more time at home, where he would be able to tell his kids good night on a regular basis.

He had to make a decision: Continue to serve as a pass-rush consultant for the Colts or spend more time at home with his family?

Mathis, thanks to a conversation he had during his retirement party two years ago with former teammate Dan Muir, will be able to continue to do both.
