Amazon’s NFL coverage may soon be adding another voice.
Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Richard Sherman and the streamer are “deep in talks” about a role for Sherman on the company’s NFL coverage.

Sherman has dealt with injuries over the last two seasons, playing in just five games in both the 2020 and 2021 campaigns.
Amazon announced their Thursday Night Football broadcast booth earlier this year, tabbing the duo of Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit. At the NFL Draft, Tony Gonzalez was announced as part of the company’s coverage, while NFL Network’s Kay Adams is also rumored as the host for the pregame, postgame, and halftime TNF programming. Marshawn Lynch, a former teammate of Sherman’s with the Seahawks, has also been mooted for a possible role with Amazon.
