You can see Mr. Slater has raised his son right. Always remember seeing Jackie drop his hand in the dirt and wondering when the heck he would retire. He was an absolute anchor on that line for 20 years.

One of the biggest atrocities in America had been the persistent removal of fathers and men from society and families.

Slater is one of the most underrated NFL players. He's an amazing leader to his teammates and he's a wonderful person. I'm glad he's had such an awesome career.

one thing that people dont know much is that opposing team players also respect the heck out of 18. THey usually pray before or after the game together. He is THE class of player representation in the league.

I was fortunate enough to meet Matthew Slater in person at an event and he is every bit of the very classy, humble gentleman you are watching in this video. He was very warm and engaging toward me and my kids. We need more pro athletes like him.

Jackie is sooooo proud of his boy that's great what a wonderful family!

Matthew Slater is a secret weapon of sorts for the Patriots. His special teams play is top notch but it's his veteran leadership in the locker room & on the field that is tops in the NFL. None better.

Happened to stumble upon this video a little over a week before Super Bowl 53, and who happens to be playing in the Super Bowl other than the Patriots and Rams. Truly special family. If the NFL has any sense, they'll dedicate at least an hour of television pre-Super Bowl doing a special showcase around these two. It'd be an amazing lead up to the game.

Class football family........but better yet..... Just a class family.

One word to describe Matthew : “class”

Beast special teamer and natural leader

I come back to watch it every once in a while and I am sure I am not the only one. One of the best pieces on an NFL family. The way they look at each other toward the end when Matthew says he is trying to hold his own and Jackie says "you're doing a fine job" always gets me. And the very beginning of the piece when little Matthew talks about what he eats when he goes to games. He looks exactly like his son looks today. Matthew seems to have a special bond with everybody in the locker room but the bond he has with his former roommate, Jules, is another kind of special. I loved seeing it here and I love seeing it after this latest SB when Matthew asked him if he was the MVP. His reaction was priceless. I don't think he would have been happier had he himself been the MVP of that game. I was fortunate enough to attend the rally to send the guys off to Atlanta for SB53 and one of the highlights for me was when Matthew said that growing up he was a Rams fan but "come Sunday, I know nothing about no Rams!" 😂😂😂😂 Jackie raised a great son who carved his own path in this league and has become in the words of Jackie, the backbone of his team, and as a Pats fan, after each win, there is nothing I look forward to more than Matthew's speech to the team and the 'Aaaaaaahhh Yeah!!!"

Also, mad respect for the Slater family. Classy, hardworking ppl who will always be successful.

What a classy family. Would love to get to know them. True Americans right there.

He is a huge reason why the Patriots are who they are, 6 time champions.

Patriots are SO lucky to have had Matthew Slater for such a long time - what a good footballer and such a nice guy - his Dad isn't bad either with 20 years under his belt !! Another couple of Father/Son - showing the rest of the World how to ''bring up'' a Son - the world needs more men like these !! Happy to learn that Matthew has signed up for another year - be a sad Day when he leaves the Pats.

He is a class act and the Patriots are fortunate to have such a good person, great player on their team. He is loved in New England.

Jackie Slater is truly one of the all time greats to ever play the offensive tackle position...

The best Gunner in the league.

Mr. Slater raised his son right and it shows. This family embodies class.

actually Jackie anchored that offensive line and blocked for eric Dickerson when he played for L.A. in the late 70's through the early eighties...and played for 20 seasons with very minor injuries..unlike todays players who miss 5-10 games for a pinkie finger injury...

Thank you Matthew Slater. You always have a home in New England. Enjoy retirement, but this fanbase will welcome you in any role for our team. GUARANTEED.

Now 3 time Champion Slater family!

As a patriots fan, Matt Slater is one of our unsung heroes. Humble and Hardworking. Blue collar work ethic. Hard to hold back the tears on this one. Faith, Family, Football.

"Proper preparation prevents piss poor performance!" 😁

2:05 Look at him!!! 🥺😂 “I get a lot of hot dogs.” Hahaha 😂

Another week, another major slater play on that punt block. That was literally the play that won the game.

These two are not just great football players but they are two great human beings. Love this family.

I love the respect they both show to each other!

WE LOVE SLATER IN NEW ENGLAND!

Every minute, moment, part, & situation was special/spectacular to me because father/son both have a bonding. Also, Mr. Slater what a son you’ve raised

Best special teamer of all time, been a pleasure to watch every game

One of the best special reamers of all time.

Best fam ever

What a good dad!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!!!

What a totally inspiring story!

Ive been a Patriot fan my entire life so winning is a thing but his talks after a win is one thing i look forward. Slater is one of my favorite people. Slate is such an amazing guy.

Beautiful piece

Greatest Special Teamer ever

Hell of a leader ♥️

That photo at 1:18 is just about the most adorable thing I've ever seen.... These two are the definition of class. Well done, Slater family.

Much respect to Matthew and his pops. I love having him on the Pats 💪🏽

he is such a underrated player, no one really knows how important and hard special teams is until it’s talked about. this dude is a baller. made me love being on special teams

Tears 😭😭 love this

Definitely a heartwarming 👍

So inspiring

WOW! Matthew Slater is an Awesome human being and Pro football player. That's a Role Model for all along with his father.

What a wholesome video.

I hope that Matt Slater plays for years to come... But I cant wait to see his second act. What an inspiration the guy is. Would love to get a Slater Jersey someday, and wear it proud. Ahhhh YEAH!

Beautiful story

wow...I grew up watching Jackie Slater on Sundays' (evenings',of course!)...Jackie Slater was the ultimate PROFESSIONAL when it came to being a blocker and teammate..didn't even realize he had a son playing for new England and has been in the league for over 10 years..winning (I think) 2 super bowls...remember..PROPER PREPARATION PREVENTS PISS POOR PERFORMANCE (THE ULTIMATE 6 P'S CONSULTATIONS)...THANK YOU slater family for making my Sundays' more complete...

I remember Matt as a Kid playing soccer with my younger brother. Always was a respectable and hard working young man. They had a female coach - Poppa Slater didn’t like other male coaches disrespecting that woman. Super family class act all the way. I am proud as hell to see Matt fly!

This is great.

I was lucky to see Jackie Slater play and toss defenders around. They deserve all the success!!
