Niners Cornerback Richard Sherman Launches Fantasy Sports Site

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman is throwing his hat into the daily fantasy sports ring.

The all-pro NFL athlete is launching a DFS site with entrepreneur Tom McAuley called Daily Number. The site will give fans the ability to craft their own lineups using any combination of players.

The goal of the game is to beat a preset target score known as the Daily Number, which is predetermined based on a set of proprietary algorithms that take into consideration a myriad of factors, such as game slate, available players, and matchups.

Users will also be able to control the degree of difficulty and their potential winnings.
