Even though it’s increasingly unlikely the Seahawks will trade Richard Sherman, if it was ever really likely at all, a bittersweet reality has emerged from the fact there have even been talks — we are nearer to the end of the Legion of Boom era than the beginning.
Assuming Sherman remains in the fold — and general manager John Schneider’s comments Monday that “right now we have kind of moved past it” indicated again that he will likely remain with the team — then no breakup will happen this season, with Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor solidly entrenched as the team’s safeties.
