• 49ers' Richard Sherman: Finishes season healthy

  01/24/2019 • By RotoWire Staff

  Sherman finished his first season in San Francisco with 37 tackles (30 solo), a sack and no interceptions. Sherman missed two games with a combination of minor injuries, but he finished the campaign with a clean bill of health coming off of an Achilles' tear that cut his 2017 season short and ultimately led to an abrupt departure from Seattle. The 30-year-old did not record an interception for the first time in his eight-year career, but that was due in large part to opposing offenses opting to throw away from the side of the field he lined up on. The veteran can no longer keep up with the Tyreek Hills of the world, but he proved that his technique and ability to lock down short and intermediate routes is as good as ever. Sherman will serve as the 49ers' top corner and vocal leader on defense heading into the 2019 season.

  Sherman wrapped up seven tackles (all solo) and recorded a sack in Sunday's 18-15 loss to Arizona. Sherman looked healthy after missing Week 7's contest, leading the team in tackles and also chipping in his first sack of the season on a corner blitz. While this was a strong IDP performance, the veteran corner usually doesn't generate much statistically when he is on the field, as teams still feel reluctant throwing his way. The strong outing does bode well for Sherman's overall health heading into Thursday's matchup against the Raiders.
