Anthony Sherman only played seven offensive snaps during Super Bowl LIV, but boy did he make them count. He had key blocks on two scoring plays including the rushing touchdown that was the dagger to the San Francisco 49ers comeback attempt. First up, he cleared out a defender after motioning from the backfield to the line on Mahomes’ touchdown run. If he didn’t do that, Mahomes is taking a bigger hit or pitching this football.

On the touchdown run that gave the Chiefs an 11-point lead, Sherman called his block in the huddle

“Follow me,” Sherman said to RB Damien Williams. “I don’t care what you do, follow me!”

And that’s exactly what Williams did and it paid off big time.

Sherman took two linebackers out of the play with his block and very literally helped Williams seal the game.
