Because of his personality, and status as one of the premier cornerbacks in the NFL, Richard Sherman is often a target of fans and opposing players.
On Wednesday, Sherman and LeGarrette Blount had a debate on Twitter over who is the best corner in the league. Blount tried to state his case for former teammate Aqib Talib. Sherman, not surprisingly, rebuffed Blount’s attempts.
Thursday, it was DeAngelo Hall of the Washington Redskins who came at Sherman with some pretty strong words. As you can imagine, the ensuing conversation was entertaining to say the least.
