Todd Gurley, Clay Matthews say they're still awaiting paychecks from Rams

Former Los Angeles Rams players  Todd Gurley and Clay Matthews have tweeted that the team is behind on delivering paychecks.

"@RamsNFL past due. Send me money ASAP," Gurley wrote in a tweet Wednesday.

Matthews retweeted Gurley, adding, "You and me both TG! Better get some interest with that too."

The Rams released Gurley and Matthews on March 19.

Gurley signed a one-year, $5.5 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday. Matthews remains an unrestricted free agent.

The Rams believe they are in full compliance with the language in the players' contracts, a source told ESPN. The team declined to comment.

Los Angeles released Gurley less than two years after it signed him to a four-year, $60 million extension that included $45 million in guarantees. The Rams designated his release as post-June 1, which allows the team to spread the dead-money cap charge of $11.75 million over two seasons. The Rams also will have $5.5 million in cap savings on June 2.

The Rams saved $3.75 million in salary-cap space by cutting Matthews.

Following their decision to cut Gurley, the Rams owed him a $7.55 million roster bonus. Because of offset language in Gurley's contract, the team does not have to pay him $2.5 million of what is owed.

Matthews was due a fully guaranteed $2 million roster bonus, but his contract also had offsetting language for $2 million.

This isn't the first time Gurley has publicly commented on money owed to him by the Rams. Late last month, Gurley commented, "@Rams thanks for the check today" on an NFL Instagram post that featured him wearing a Falcons uniform.
