“I Doubt Seriously If He’ll Be Back Any Time Soon.”
November 15th, 2021
The quote in the headline is from Bucco Bruce Arians. It’s the status of cornerback Richard Sherman after straining/pulling a calf muscle yesterday before the loss to Washington.
Enough said.

damn!

He & Bruce can be drinking buddies now

At least Sherm can seriously contribute even if not on the field–stinks, but at least he can offer assistance in other ways.

So licht just froze and did not go and try and trade for any decent corners that were available out there?
November 15th, 2021 at 1:02 pm
He’s a better coach than player at this point anyways. A good thing.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:02 pm
Sherman knew/knows he’s done and doesn’t want to embarrass his “legacy”
How do you prove/disprove a pulled muscle anyway?
November 15th, 2021 at 1:03 pm
no Dusthty. We couldn’t afford any. The only one we could have afforded was that former first round pick on the jags that was still on his rookie deal that the panthers swooped in and took. Aside from that they were all unavailable or too expensive.

Another wasted signing. Beginning to look like the Brandon administration; a lot of talk, but no action.
Let’s Go Brandon!!!
Peace, Out

There’s a reason guys are unsigned well into the season. AB worked out for the Bucs but that is an exception. Sherman is the rule.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:12 pm
Oh boy! can we get a refund from Sherman.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:13 pm
Sherman sees or puts a foot in the field and gets injured or hes allergic to it , meanwhile brady is not far away … brady cant play in the cold no more. And if he gets hit early like yesterday he freezes up.
Bucs = retirement spot.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:26 pm
Yeah, Sherman’s at that dreaded point in his career where his body keeps breaking down. Many players are either cut, or retire once they enter that endpoint. I wasn’t confident he had the speed to do the job, despite the weight loss. While he was never a speedster, he just looked too slow for the 49ers last season.
If he’s cut, it might be time to consider poaching a practice squad CB.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:27 pm
Wait – sheman was on the team?
😂
November 15th, 2021 at 1:28 pm
Better enjoy these last few check because will never play in the NFL again.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:31 pm
Too bad he has run out of tread
November 15th, 2021 at 1:31 pm
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the hill…..
November 15th, 2021 at 1:35 pm
I said before that this was a bad pick up. He offers us nothing in regards to production on the field. He’s old and washed up. Why can’t we just cut him and be done with already.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:37 pm
he didn’t play well last 2 yrs with niners..it was a waste to pick him up-but he came cheap . past time to cut him….

@Dusthty Rhothdes
We really have no idea who was being offered and at what price. It takes two to tango for a trade to go down. We also don’t know the degree of optimism Arians and Licht were experiencing; they might have thought that Davis and SMB were almost ready. In either case I was disappointed as I was never that high on SMB or Dean; adding a competent (adequate, not good) made a lot of sense.
There was enough money in team cap to add someone on their last season or two on a non-first round rookie contract. Licht could have even absorbed a higher vet salary, but to do so he’d need to find a party willing to absorb OJ in return (with a pick). That was no small task.
November 15th, 2021 at 1:50 pm
So I hear Vernon Hargreaves is available….
November 15th, 2021 at 1:56 pm
Anybody who follows football knew Sherman was pretty much well close to done after the 9ers. This had to be one of Arians pet projects like that backup QB we have? I’m all for charity but this Sh.. here…….
November 15th, 2021 at 3:27 pm
6-3 First in the Division… Not the time to go all chicken little Bucs Fans🙄
November 15th, 2021 at 5:34 pm
Who would have thought grabbing an old guy off the streets would carry a big injury risk? I certainly didn’t think that…
Actually, I’m shocked he made it that long without getting hurt. Also he might have been having a good influence on the younger corners, they gave him credit when he had to play coach that one game, maybe they should let him do that some more since it certainly can’t hurt at this point.
November 15th, 2021 at 6:29 pm
Sherm is so old that he has a Ghost coming out of his forehead.
November 15th, 2021 at 7:09 pm
The offense needs better play calls. The same old thing everyone run straight down field eventually gets figured out.
November 16th, 2021 at 1:39 am
Time to sign someone else. Should have done things before the trade deadline.
I’m not confident in this secondary, even with SMB back.
November 16th, 2021 at 8:15 am
I have followed RS since he first was out in as sub for Marcus Trufont who was injured 2011. 5th round draft pick became elite shut down corner for my team (i am a 12– not to be confused w Brady—12 as Seahawk’s 12th man). He got dealt blow when Hawks released him and second year with 49ers was good. Almost all of 2019-20 season he was out w the calf injury which i suspect was same he just reinjured. He said when he signed he wanted to see if his “old legs” had anything left. Unfortunately they dont. To guy that made comment on drinking buddy— please do fact check- his problem is depression w suicidal ideation he is being treated for. Your comment was Not funny.
November 16th, 2021 at 8:31 am
Release him PLEASEEEEE
November 16th, 2021 at 10:40 am
Cut him
November 16th, 2021 at 4:19 pm
You might as well thank yourself that Gronk lasted one easy season. He will be ONE AND DONE. He has always missed many games because of injuries. Enjoy your 1 superbowl ! GO PATRIOTS !
November 16th, 2021 at 8:12 pm
Billy Z – I see your still crying because Brady didn’t want to play for your PATS ANYMORE 😂 .. He’s having the best time in a LONG TIME right here in Tampa !!
