When the Los Angeles Rams decided to sign 33 year-old LB Clay Matthews in free agency this offseason, many wondered how much the Green Bay Packers’ all-time sack leader had left in the tank.
It’s a fair question exacerbated by some errant initial reports of a deal in the $16.75m range; the Rams would later announce an incentive-laden two-year deal with just $5.5m guaranteed. Statistically, Matthews has been in a noticeable decline these last few years registering just 3.5 sacks in 2018.
Will a move west signal a late-career flourish for the Agoura Hills High / USC Trojan product?
