THE SEAHAWKS PLAYER HAD NO PROBLEM SHARING HIS TRUE FEELINGS
Richard Sherman has hopped on the wave of athletes standing up for what’s right. He recently posted a video on The Player’s Tribune condemning the NFL for the way they handled the Cam Newton abuse in Week 1, saying players don’t have any reason to trust the NFL.
As transcribed by ESPN:
“It’s hard to stress player safety in such a violent game because at the end of the day, ratings sell, people want to buy tickets, people are going to come to games regardless,” Sherman said. “Now does the league care when Cam Newton gets hit in the face five times and pretty much knocked out of the game? And they have all these spotters and people that watch the game specifically for these reasons, and you see the guy on his hands and knees shaking his head after he just took a shot to the face. And they’re saying they didn’t see any indications that he needed to come out of the game.”
That’s just a part of his justice testimony. Peep the entire video below.
