Richard Sherman Fined By The NFL (VIDEO)
Damn Homie! Richard Sherman Fined By The NFL (VIDEO)
It looks like even the NFL is coming down hard on Richard Sherman.
After making nearly every headline this week for his intense post-game interview, it looks like his antics from the game itself are coming back to bite him.
The Huffington Post reports that the Seahawks quarterback was fined for $7,875 for unsportsmanlike conduct and taunting during the final minute of the NFC game.
The NFL confirmed the fine was being issued to Sherman just yesterday, and the site reports:
Sherman was flagged after he made a choking gesture toward the San Francisco bench that he said was directed at quarterback Colin Kaepernick. Sherman had just deflected a pass intended for Michael Crabtree in the end zone that was intercepted by linebacker Malcolm Smith and clinched Seattle’s 23-17 victory.
Sherman ran over and after tapping Crabtree on the backside and extended his hand for a handshake. Crabtree then shoved Sherman in the face. The All-Pro cornerback then made the choking gesture.
It looks like giving into anger and adrenaline isn’t always a great outlet.
Do you think Richard Sherman should have been fined?
