Matthews had 83 sacks in his 10 seasons with the Packers, earning six Pro Bowl selections and winning a Super Bowl ring. He has been a standout pass-rusher throughout his career, although his 3 sacks last season were the lowest total of his decade in the NFL.
Matthews is a native of Agoura Hills, California, who lives in nearby Calabasas. Both towns are near the Rams' training complex in Thousand Oaks.
