From the legendary Matthews family, Clay Matthews III became a perfect fit for Lambeau Field.  

Matthews was a star Linebacker since the moment he began, earning a Pro Bowl selection in his rookie year and making five more since.  Matthews has excelled at pass rushing and whenever you watch a game that featured Green Bay it is likely that Matthews was all over the screen.  

A First Team All-Pro in 2010, Matthews III was the runner-up for the Defensive Player of the Year, with the PFWA naming him as their DPOY.

Matthews played a large part in Green Bay’s success in the 2010s, leading them to a Super Bowl in the aforementioned 2010 campaign.  He finished his career with a final year with the Rams, and had 91.5 Sacks with 130 Tackles for Loss over his career.

Starting 160 of his 165 games at Left Tackle, Chad Clifton was one of the more underappreciated Offensive Lineman for a decade.  Protecting Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers, Clifton was a two-time Pro Bowl selection and would help the Packers win Super Bowl XLV.

Green Bay inducted Clifton to their Hall of Fame in 2016.

The career of Sterling Sharpe was not long, lasting only seven years as he was forced out of the game due to a severe neck injury.  However in those seven campaigns, Sharpe would lead the league in Receptions three times and tallied over 8,000 Yards.  Sharpe, who was also a three-time First Team All-Pro, would accomplish the rare Wide Receiver “Triple Crown” when in 1992 he led the NFL in Receptions, Receiving Yards, and Receiving Touchdowns.

The Packers elected Sharpe into their Hall of Fame in 2002.
