Bruce Rankin Matthews (Raleigh, 8 agosto 1961) è un allenatore di football americano ed ex giocatore di football americano statunitense che ha giocato nel ruolo di offensive lineman nella National Football League (NFL) per 19 stagioni tra il 1983 e il 2001. Matthews al college giocò a football per la University of Southern California, dove fu premiato come All-American. Scelto nel primo giro del Draft NFL 1983, giocò per tutta la carriera con gli Houston Oilers, poi diventati Tennessee Titans. È stato convocato per 14 Pro Bowl il massimo della storia insieme a Merlin Olsen e Tony Gonzalez.

Carriera da giocatore

Gli Houston Oilers selezionarono Matthews come non assoluto nel Draft 1983^[1]. A Houston, egli bloccò per il leggendario Earl Campbell e finì per giocare in tutte le posizioni della linea offensiva (guardia, centro e tackle), venendo selezionato per il Pro Bowl come guardia e come centro. Matthews trascorse tutta la sua carriera con la franchigia degli Oilers, che nel mezzo della sua carriera si trasferì e divenne i Tennessee Titans. Un giocatore estremamente longevo, Matthews si ritirò dopo la stagione 2001 avendo giocato più gare di qualsiasi altro giocatore nella NFL (296), esclusi i placekicker e i punter (in seguito fu superato da Brett Favre; Matthews detiene ancora il record per un uomo della linea offensiva), e giocò più stagioni (19) di qualsiasi altro uomo della linea offensiva. Non saltò mai una gara per infortunio (la stagione 1987 fu accorciata per uno sciopero dei giocatori) e partì come titolare in 229 gare consecutive. Nel 1999, i Titans arrivarono a disputare il Super Bowl XXXIV in cui Matthews partì come titolare, ma la squadra venne sconfitta dai St. Louis Rams guidati da Kurt Warner. Matthews è l'unico giocatore ad aver giocato contro i Baltimore Colts nella loro ultima gara al Memorial Stadium e contro i Baltimore Ravens nella loro ultima gara al Memorial Stadium.

Nel suo primo anno di eleggibilità, Matthews fu inserito nella Pro Football Hall of Fame nella classe del 2007^[2]. È l'unico giocatore dei Tennessee Titans ad aver ricevuto questo onore dal loro trasferimento da Houston. Fu il quinto giocatore del Draft 1983 ad essere indotto, unendosi a Dan Marino, Eric Dickerson, John Elway e Jim Kelly; Darrell Green in seguito divenne il sesto.

Carriera da allenatore

Il 27 febbraio 2009, Matthews firmò con gli Houston Texans come assistente dell'attacco, ruolo che ricoprì fino al 2010. Il 9 febbraio 2011 passò ai Tennessee Titans come allenatore della linea offensiva.

Vita privata

Bruce è il fratello di Clay, Pro Bowler negli anni ottanta con i Cleveland Browns. I figli di Matthews, Kevin, Jake e Mike hanno tutti giocato come offensive lineman alla Texas A&M University. Jake era considerato uno dei migliori offensive tackle selezionabili nel Draft NFL 2014, dove fu scelto come sesto assoluto dagli Atlanta Falcons.
