Richard Sherman knows football. The former Seattle Seahawks multi-time All-Pro wasn't elite because he was simply big and quick. He was those things, but he had an ability that most others didn't: He could (and would) outthink his competition. He was simply smarter than other people.
That has remained the case now that he commentates on the sport. He hosts a podcast and is part of Amazon's Thursday Night Football broadcast. Sherman speaks with informed opinions and does so in a way that forces people to listen.
One of his most recent observations might be concerning for Seahawks fans, however.
