Five-Time Pro Bowl CB Richard Sherman Signing With Buccaneers

Five-time Pro Bowl cornerback Richard Sherman is signing with the Buccaneers, Sherman announced Wednesday on an episode of The Richard Sherman Podcast.

"I went with the best offer I had, the best opportunity to go out there and put some great tape on, to lead another group," Sherman said. "I feel comfortable and confident in my abilities to execute and help that team win."

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the deal is for one season.

Sherman visited the Bucs on Tuesday. According to Ian Rapoport, while he had talks with the 49ers and Seahawks, Sherman chose the Buccaneers in part because of a recruiting pitch from quarterback Tom Brady and the rest of the Tampa Bay coaching staff.
