<p>Green Bay Packers legend and Super Bowl winner Clay Matthews delivered a &#8220;message&#8221; he joked came from President Donald Trump aimed at rival Chicago Bears on Thursday night during the opening night of the NFL Draft.</p>
<p>Ahead of the first pick of the draft, Matthews, who played linebacker for the Packers for 10 seasons, took to the podium at the draft in Green Bay in front of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to take a well-timed shot at the Bears.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m gonna go off script here real quick &#8230; Roger,&#8221; Matthews said, flanked by other former Packers greats up on stage. &#8220;I just got off the phone with the president, Donald Trump. He asked me to pass a message along to all 32 NFL franchises. Let me tell you what it reads here, alright.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It says, &#8216;My fellow Americans, the Bears still suck!'&#8221; Matthews chanted into the microphone to the cheering crowd.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is great. 😂</p>
<p>Former Packers linebacker Clay Matthews surprised the crowd at the NFL Draft by jokingly telling them he had a message from Trump for all 32 NFL teams.</p>

<p>Matthews made the comments as he was surrounded by other former Packers like Jordy Nelson, Mason Crosby, Ahman Green, and James Jones. Earlier in the night, the former Packers linebacker had biked out onto the stage alongside Goodell, mimicking a Packer tradition where players ride young fans&#8217; bikes during training camp.</p>

<p>As a Packer, Matthews went 16-3 against the Bears as he played from 2009-2018 during the Aaron Rodgers era. In 2011, Matthews and the Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl 31-25. In that game, Matthews forced a fumble in the fourth quarter that proved to be a critical turning point.</p>
<p>Other Packer legends have developed a close association with Trump in recent years. Three time MVP and Super Bowl winner Brett Favre <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/packers-legend-brett-favre-rallies-for-trump-time-to-bench-kamala" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was outspoken</a> about his support for Trump during the 2024 presidential election. The former quarterback even appeared at an event in Green Bay days before the election to rally support for Trump.</p>
<p>“I can tell you one thing, I knew I would come back to Green Bay at various times, but I never thought I would come back in this setting,” Favre said at the time. &#8220;Much like the Packer organization, Donald Trump and his organization is a winner. The United States of America won with his leadership.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump ended up defeating Kamala Harris by just under 30,000 votes in Wisconsin.</p>
