cornerback Richard Sherman injured his left elbow in the NFC championship game
against the Green Bay Packers while attempting to make a tackle. Sherman
sustained the injury on the first play of the fourth quarter. After a brief
evaluation, Sherman stayed in the game, playing with his elbow injury by
keeping his left arm pinned against his chest for the remainder of the game.
According
to NFL Network reporter Albert Breer, the results of Sherman’s MRI concluded
that the injury was a sprain. Sherman suffered from a bad hyperextension of the
arm. ESPN’s interview clip with Sherman states, “I don’t miss practice,” he
said, “So I’ll be out there.” Sherman said he might practice with a brace but
hopes to have no limitations by the Super Bowl. Sherman is confident that he will
be playing in this year’s Super Bowl.
