Richard Sherman likely to be released soon by Seahawks as no trade appears to have materialized

Richard Sherman was in Las Vegas Thursday attending NFL Players Association meetings and also — according to a few pictures, anyway — trying his luck at a craps table.

What he also figures to soon be is an ex-Seahawk with the team remaining expected to release him in the next 24 to 48 hours.

The Seahawks have explored trade options for Sherman but nothing appears to have materialized — at least as of Thursday morning — and Seattle is likely to instead release Sherman ahead of the beginning of the new league year on Wednesday.

Because Sherman is a vested veteran his contract would officially be terminated and he would immediately become a free agent.
