Richard Sherman Says Nick Bosa's Social Media Comments Only An Issue If He Can't Play

San Francisco 49ers cornernback Richard Sherman says he isn't too worried about rookie Nick Bosa's recent flap with his oocial media posting, because it will only become an issue if Bosa turns out to be a bust.

The 49ers selected Bosa with the second overall pick in last month's draft, but before the former Ohio State defensive end was drafted he had to answer questions about his social media activities, including calling former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick "a clown" for protesting the national anthem.

"One thing about football is that nobody really cares what you say if you can play," Sherman told The Sacramento Bee.
