Packers' Matthews ailing again

DETROIT -- Observed and heard in the locker room Sunday after the Green Bay Packers' 19-7 loss to the Detroit Lions at Ford Field:

Matthews ailing again: Here's a new one for Clay Matthews -- the outside linebacker left the game with a groin injury in the fourth quarter. Aside from his broken thumb last year, the only other injuries Matthews has battled during his career have been to his hamstrings. Although Matthews remained on the sideline and appeared ready to go back into the game, he never did.

This guy just can't stay healthy. He plays soo hard, it's kind of understandable. The Packers need him, though.

I think he needs to restructure his deal he is over paid for the time on the field

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

When you are spending most of your time on the field picking up other players slack/being the only one going 100% each play, its bound to happen.

...just my observation.

Maybe he needs to give yoga a whirl.

Damn it's a groin. Ugh. I wonder if he'll play against the Bears.

That is all.

Thank you for reading.
