Former Tennessee Titans wide receiver Rishard Matthews is not exactly a fan of new Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur.

Matthews played under LaFleur this past season while LaFleur was the Titans' offensive coordinator. However, Matthews did not exactly excel, logging just five catches for 24 yards in five games before being cut.

He then made his way to the New York Jets where he fared no better, appearing in three contests and totaling two receptions for 13 yards. But Matthews, who is still a free agent, seems to blame LaFleur for his lack of production in 2018.

When asked by a fan on Instagram how he enjoyed his stay in Tennessee, the wideout had this to say:

“Was straight until punk (expletive) LaFleur came through,” Matthews said, via Allan Bell of 247 Sports. “[LaFleur] told me I had to earn my starting spot back and that wasn't going to happen anytime soon. Then bounced after one year. I probably should have gutted it out but that guy was too disrespectful and not a guy that lets someone (expletive) on your face then spend every day as if it didn't happen. So you make decisions and you move on.”

Before LaFleur arrived on the scene, Matthews was a very productive receiver, and in 2017, he hauled in 53 receptions for 795 yards and four touchdowns.

His best season, however, came in 2016, when he caught 65 passes for 945 yards and nine scores.

The 29-year-old spent the first four years of his career with the Miami Dolphins before joining the Titans in 2016.
