Rishard Matthews: Matt LaFleur was "too disrespectful"

Former Tennesee Titans wide receiver Rishard Matthews is clearly not a fan of new Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. Matthews recently went on Instagram to answer questions from fans. One fan asked him if he liked his stay with the Titans. Matthews said he like playing for the Titans was fun until they brought in LaFleur as the offensive coordinator.

Yeah unless there is more, this doesn't tell me much.

It was fun, until he seriously struggled in a new system... in that situation, I think a lot would say it was less fun. Though it is interesting how much he dropped off... was that him, or the system, or something else.

So here is one disgruntled WR and this is supposed be news?

I expect him to be on The Herd with Greg Jennings any day now
😂😂

I think I will move on.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The story as I heard it was Risard wasn't any good, and LaFleur said he wasn't gonna be a starter anytime soon, or something like that. Sounds to me like some of that "clear messaging" that Aaron Rodgers was speaking about.

Rishard Matthews sounds like a candy ass snowflake!!!! I wonder how we would have felt playing for Lombardi, "Its not fun anymore...he disrespected me."

Matthews is another guy who could use some Vagasil.

This interview makes me like Lafleur even meur. :-)

Some people were criticizing LaFleur for not being hard enough. 😎

This whole “he disrespected me” is bull. It is your boss’s job to motivate you to do better, to be your best.
What was he SUPPOSED to do? Coddle him? Say “oh....would you mind trying to be better, try to be the best you can , so that we can win? If not, it’s ok. I’m not asking you to earn your money or position. Just do whatever you want. I hope I didn’t hurt your sensitive feelings! If I did, I apologize.”

Zero2Cool (2h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (5h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (6h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (7h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (7h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (7h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (9h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (19h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
