“All the things I put before football in the past, it’s not fun anymore — marijuana and everything you put before football is obsolete now,” Mathieu said.

After describing quitting marijuana as “a big struggle,” Mathieu said he had been getting high since a family member first gave marijuana to him at the age of 12 or 13.

“It’s smoking marijuana and then it’s all the things you kind of surround yourself around,” Mathieu said. “The marijuana was the issue but it was the social things, too, that I had to get in line.” Now Mathieu just hopes some team will believe him when he says he has gotten in line.

When it comes to being honest at NFL COmbine interviews, Sam Montgomery>>>>>>>> Tyrann Matheiu.


People expect you to say you've kicked the habit. Telling everyone you took games off takes real balls.

But seriously, I hope he's being honest and really does have that focus. Hes a fun guy to watch.

Sounds like a bullshite artist who's trying to improve his draft stock. I dont believe any of it.

But I certainly wish him the best.

He was as most exciting of a defensive player (for LSU) as I can remember. Hope nothing but the best for him, but once he gets in the bigs, the social pressures will increase exponentially. It's up to him to figure out who he will hang out with or not.

Hope he overcomes his issues and has a great career. Fun guy to watch.
