The Green Bay Packers have reinvented All-Pro Clay Matthews, transforming the once terrorizing edge rusher into the NFL’s most versatile and disruptive inside linebacker.
He’s now a new breed of defender, an offense-destroying cyborg sent from the future to revolutionize the position. A little heavy? One Packers coach doesn’t think so.
“Clay has evolved into something completely new,” assistant head coach Winston Moss said, via David Fleming of ESPN. “He’s whatever’s next, the Terminator nobody has an answer for yet.”
Matthews has 4.5 sacks through six games, plus a game-sealing interception of Jay Cutler in Week 1.
