Richard Sherman was arrested on June 14th. Here’s why the former All-Pro cornerback is no longer a realistic free-agent option for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Throughout the offseason, there have been the same 3 or 4 free agents that Steelers fans were hoping their team would sing. After David DeCastro was released, signing one of those big names became a realistic possibility.
Richard Sherman was one of those players. After Pittsburgh lost both Steven Nelson and Mike Hilton earlier this offseason, fans have been adamant about adding more talent at the cornerback position.
