Richard Sherman’s Time in Seattle
Sherman, who is in his second season as an analyst on Amazon Prime’s NFL coverage, has an important place in Seahawks history. Seattle selected Sherman in the fifth round of the 2011 draft out of Stanford. He became a lead member of the Legion of Boom, the nickname for the Seahawks’ secondary.
Sherman was named first-team All-Pro three times and earned Pro Bowl honors four times during his seven seasons with the Seahawks. He had 32 interceptions in 105 regular-season games during his time in Seattle.
Sherman made the playoffs five times and won two NFC Championships with the Seahawks. Seattle’s defense shut down Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos’ explosive offense to win Super Bowl XLVIII 43-8.
Sherman played three seasons with the 49ers and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before retiring after the 2021 campaign. In addition to Amazon Prime, Sherman can also be seen debating Skip Bayless on FS1’s Undisputed.
