Richard Sherman calls the NFL potentially taking from the Seahawks a high draft choice for not reporting his knee injury this past season “harsh” and “some foolishness.”
No surprise there.
Seattle’s three-time All-Pro cornerback commented to ESPN on Wednesday at the NFC team’s practice in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, for Sunday’s Pro Bowl in nearby Orlando. They were his first public words since Seahawks coach Pete Carroll revealed 10 days earlier Sherman played the late part of the 2016 season and two playoff games with a “significant, legit” knee injury.
"I don't know if that should be the retribution," Sherman told ESPN Wednesday in Florida.
