Seattle Seahawks Rumors: Richard Sherman 'As Disappointed As Ever' In NFL Management [VIDEO]

As many expected, there has been plenty of hype surrounding the Super Bowl, and many of the players have not shied away from the microphone when asked about their feelings on their opponents. One player who never backs down from an interview is Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman, and he was very candid about his thoughts on Roger Goodell and the NFL's leadership.

Sherman wrote a column for The MMQB this week, and he had some strong words about the way that he thinks the league is being run:

"On a bigger level, I look at the NFL today and I'm as disappointed as ever in its management. Commissioner Roger Goodell operates at a high level, but he's doing what 32 owners tell him to do. I once believed that having more retired players in the league office could remedy this, but the former player in the highest position, executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent, continues to disappoint. When he told Adrian Peterson he'd receive a two-game suspension and the league failed to deliver, he became just another suit."

But Sherman still had more to say. He does not appreciate the way that the league treats somebody like teammate Marshawn Lynch, who is uncomfortable speaking to the media. Lynch has been fined in the past for not being available for interviews.

"Under Goodell the league continues to put players like Marshawn Lynch in a position to be mocked by the media, which seems to get a kick out of seeing people struggle on camera. As teammates we're angry because we know what certain people do well and we know what they struggle with. Marshawn's talking to the press is the equivalent of putting a reporter on a football field and telling him to tackle Adrian Peterson."

Sherman later goes on to say that he finds it unfair that people want players to talk, but then players are reprimanded for saying things that might be controversial, such as when many players voiced their support for public movements like the ones that happened in Ferguson, Missouri.
