Nobody needs to remind Seahawks fans to enjoy the good times while they last. What looked like a new dynasty in the NFL broke apart just when it was at its peak and most of the core pieces of those great Seattle teams have either retired or moved on.
It looks like former Seahawks cornebrack Richard Sherman’s career might be coming to an end. Sherman played this season with the Buccaneers but he was extremely limited by injuries. He was placed on IR a few days ago and posted a message yesterday about his body giving it all he had.
Didn’t go how I wanted it to but I’m grateful for the opportunity to strap it up again! Look forward to continuing this journey with my teammates and coaching my butt off. Thank you for all the support this season. The body gave all it had and I’m grateful.

Sherman may not be done playing yet, but it’s clear he doesn’t have much time left in the league.
Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett shared a tribute to Sherman and Kam Chancellor on Twitter today, saying that Sherman was the one guy in the league he wanted approval from.
I did this entrance when @KamChancellor and @RSherman_25 were no longer on the team up until the start of this last season as a appreciation of who they were. When it came to Sherm if there was anybody in the league I wanted approval from to hear about my game it was him. pic.twitter.com/pk7H2M2wRE

Sherman responded by saying he’s proud of everything Lockett has accomplished.
I am beyond proud of everything you have accomplished and everything you represent. Love you brother https://t.co/FF51dpKLC3

Wholesome.
For what it’s worth, Lockett finished with the highest offensive grade from Pro Football Focus this season on the team.
