Buccaneers expected to start newly signed CB Richard Sherman vs. Patriots

Cornerback Richard Sherman signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just four days ago, but the coaching staff is apparently feeling very confident in him.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Sherman is expected to start when the Bucs take on the New England Patriots on Sunday night.

There were signs a few days ago that head coach Bruce Arians would probably be giving Sherman at least some playing time. After just a handful of practices, Arians announced that Sherman would be active for Sunday night's game.
