Richard Sherman aired his delayed beef with Cam Newton recently, sharing that he did not like the way Newton grabbed the Seahawks 12th man flag after the Panthers defeated the Seahawks in last year’s divisional playoff round. Sherman then said it was Karma that the Panthers are not going to be in the playoffs this year.
Newton responded above calling Sherman’s comments irrelevant, while stating he has respect for Sherman. Newton has a point since the 12th man flag was flying in his home stadium, and the situation is basically irrelevant since it happened almost a year ago. It’s unclear why Sherman chose this week to reveal his feelings about what happened last year, but Cam did his best to try to take the high road.
