Richard Sherman Would Like To Play For Steelers: ‘I’m Not Afraid Of The AFC North’

While the Pittsburgh Steelers could certainly use another veteran cornerback in their roster on the heels of the team parting ways with cornerback Steven Nelson earlier in the offseason, don’t count on veteran free agent Richard Sherman signing with the team.

In a recent interview with Stephen A. Smith on ESPN, Sherman, who is still looking to sign with a new team this offseason, said he has yet to have any conversations with the Steelers about possibly joining them.

“They ain’t call. I can’t make them call,” Sherman told Smith.

After Smith, a longtime Steelers fan, joked that he would call head coach Mike Tomlin to see what he could do to facilitate Sherman signing with Pittsburgh, the veteran cornerback made it clear that he would have no problem playing for the AFC North team.
