Richard Sherman knows the sport he played and talks about well. So does James Boyd, the Indianapolis Colts reporter for The Athletic. The issue is that Sherman sees football from the inside, having played it extremely well for the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers, while Boyd is more of an observer.
The two will likely differ on which questions should be asked of a player and when. Sherman prefers those related directly to football. Boyd has a different job to do and needs to ask about everything surrounding a team or player.
This all comes into play from some recent behavior by Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua.
