Richard Sherman is on his way to the Super Bowl but for whatever reason former cornerback Darrelle Revis decided to take a shot at him during Sunday’s NFC championship game.

All y’all think I’m throwing shade. I’m not. Just stating the man is not a pound for pound man to man corner. If you know the game of football he plays in a Cover 3 Scheme. He does not travel but traveling with a receiver is not for every DB. It’s a few on the corner list who can

Sherman saw Revis’ tweet after game and fired off this perfect response reminding Revis that he’s going to be watching the Super Bowl from his couch in a few weeks.
I would go in on this has been but I have a Super Bowl to prepare for. Enjoy the view from the couch. Your ninth year looked a lot different than this. Lmao https://t.co/jj3pwWYhVa

Update: Revis and Sherman kept going back and forth.
My 9th year I lead the entire league in turnovers. 5 Ints and 4 Fumble Recoveries. Enjoy the Super Bowl and strap up because this game you will have to cover. @RSherman_25 😂😂😂

Not sure why Revis is criticizing Sherman who has had a great year and has come back from a ton of adversity to be where he’s at. In the end it doesn’t matter because Sherm will be playing in Miami while Revis will be watching.
Tore his Achilles and had to find a new team.
Worked his way back to being one of the best corners in the game.
Tuned out the doubters and now Richard Sherman is back in the Super Bowl.
