During the Cards/Rams game there was a textbox saying that Chris Long is one of four active players, whose father is in the NFL Hall of Fame. Two of the other three are named Manning. That was easy... But who is the fourth? Griese and Simms are not travelling around the league anymore and Kellen Winslow is also not with a team. So who do I forget?

His father Clay Matthews Jr. was one of 26 semifinalists for the HoF in 2012 but he is not inducted yet.

Edit: His uncle, Bruce, has a bust in Canton.

I had to exhume this topic. Bruce Matthews has a son who plays in the NFL - and two more sons who may be on their way to the pros.

Bruce's oldest son, Kevin, plays at center for the Titans. His middle son, Jake, is currently starting at OT for the Texas A&M Aggies. His youngest son, Mike, accepted a scholarship to play center at Texas A&M as well.

What a family tradition! Somewhere in Sugar Land, Texas, Clay Matthews Sr, also a former pro football player, is smiling.

...and is coached by Bruce himself, who is the OLine-Coach at Tennessee.

Thanks for the update... Never trust the guys in the TV.

It's still early for Wisniewski. He was a great offensive lineman for both Penn State and the Raiders.
