Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated had an interesting tidbit in his MMQB this morning. He noted that San Francisco 49ers CB Richard Sherman was never really healthy in 2018. Here’s the excerpt:
One thing to watch: I’m told that Richard Sherman was at no better than 80% last year, and he only got there after significant improvement in early November, right around when the Niners played the Giants. As such, San Francisco expects a much improved version of the former All-Pro, which would give the roster a boost at a position where Ahkello Witherspoon struggled last year, and Jason Verrett was added last month.
