Richard Sherman played 11 seasons as an NFL cornerback, earning five Pro Bowl selections and five All-Pro honors, including three first-team nods. A fifth-round pick out of Stanford, he became a central figure in Seattle's "Legion of Boom" defense—the secondary that led the league in pass defense in 2013 and 2014 and helped the Seahawks win Super Bowl XLVIII with a dominant 43–8 victory over Denver. Seattle returned to the Super Bowl the following year, falling to New England, and during Sherman's tenure the team led the league in scoring defense for four consecutive seasons. He later played for San Francisco, reaching Super Bowl LIV, and finished his career in Tampa Bay. Since retiring, Sherman has moved into media work. He co-hosts The Richard Sherman Podcast with former agent Mitchell Eisenstein under The Volume brand, serves as a pregame and postgame analyst for Amazon, and spent a season as Skip Bayless's co-host on Undisputed. His predictions span NFC division races, draft reactions, and player awards, with particular attention to the Seahawks, 49ers, and Rams.
