Richard Sherman created massive shockwaves in the wake of his decision to sign for Bruce Arians-coached Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The veteran NFL cornerback signed a one-year deal with the Bucs. He stands to make north of $2.25m during his short stay in Florida.

The former Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers man was not expected to be in contention to feature for the Week 4 game against New England Patriots. But latest reports indicate that Sherman is in line to make his Tampa Bay Buccaneers debut this weekend.

Speaking to the media ahead of Sunday’s highly-anticipated clash against his former team, Tom Brady was all praise for teammate Richard Sherman.

“It’s great. I like Richard a lot. I got to know him on that one particular day out there. He was kind of young and brash and excitable. I threw him a pick, that was the problem.”

“I should have never tried him, but I didn’t quite know the scouting report as well as I should have. He made a great interception. He was a Stanford wide receiver, [they] made him a DB. Obviously, he’s great against go routes and I tried to throw one up the seam to Deion Branch. I regret that throw,” Brady said earlier this week.
