On June 2, Cromartie called out Sherman on SiriusXM NFL Radio, saying Sherman must follow the best receiver around the field on a daily basis before his peers will truly consider him the NFL’s best cornerback.

“You would think after me helping him get a Pro Bowl bid this year — we went to the Super Bowl (and) he wouldn’t have made the Pro Bowl otherwise — and now he’s talking bad,” Sherman said.
