Richard Sherman: There Will Be a Lockout Before Players Extend Current CBA

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman believes there will be a player lockout after the current collective bargaining agreement in the NFL expires following the 2020 season.

John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game in San Francisco shared Sherman's comments. The cornerback—who is the 49ers' player representative—said "It's gonna happen" with a head-turning degree of certainty and pointed out the two sides won't negotiate a new CBA before the one in place runs out.
