Richard Sherman· Mar 3, 2026
Sherman previewed NFL free agency, predicting Kenneth Walker and Rashid Shaheed will price themselves out of Seattle, that Brandon Aiyuk gets cut by San Francisco and lands on a prove-it deal in Washington, and that Malik Willis follows Jeff Hafley to Miami. He also argued the combine is overvalued and that the franchise tag isn't going away.
“Could Malik Willis go with Jeff Hafley to the Miami Dolphins and get a payday? I think so.”
