For the better part of the past decade, Richard Sherman has been a nuisance on the boundary of the secondary for the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers. He was even labeled the “kryptonite” of the Green Bay Packers earlier this week by the Washington Post, as Aaron Rodgers has faced the lockdown cornerback seven times and targeted him on less than 7% of his throws.
Many have suggested it. Aaron Rodgers has followed it. And perhaps NFL Next Gen Stats supports it.
As the 49ers’ starting left cornerback, Richard Sherman patrols the offense’s right side of the field.
