My Take
Nineteen NFL seasons is the number that stops me cold. In a sport built on collisions, lasting almost two decades as a linebacker, mostly with the Cleveland Browns, demands a freakish blend of durability, smarts and discipline. A USC product and first-round pick in 1978, Clay Matthews Jr. is the son of 1950s NFL player Clay Matthews Sr., the brother of Hall of Famer Bruce Matthews and the father of Super Bowl champion Clay Matthews III. I tend to find longevity more impressive than flash, and his career is a masterclass in it. He is the kind of unglamorous cornerstone player whose value the box score rarely fully captures.
