Darrelle Revis Ripped Richard Sherman for Avoiding Man-to-Man Coverage

Darrelle Revis was sitting at home watching the NFC Championship Game and apparently thought he needed to take a shot at San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman. Revis has been retired for two years, but apparently he's still taking shots.

Revis took to Twitter to critique Sherman:

Fear of getting beat in man to man coverage. Every snap every play. The fact that he doesn’t travel as a cornerback is lame. Except the challenge as the best and shut Adams down the entire game. Do it for the game of football. Stop hiding a cover 3 zone. pic.twitter.com/OWuzFtj8ov

He continued:

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

Regardless of Revis' critiques, Sherman was named Second-team All-Pro this year at 31 years old and reached his fifth Pro Bowl. That said, he did get bet on a deep ball in the fourth quarter, though he also effectively ended the game with an interception off Aaron Rodgers late.

Revis was a four-time First-team All-Pro himself during his career, but was out of football at 32. Now he's a critic from home. Hey wait, that's my job! Back off Darrelle.

UPDATE: Richard Sherman has now clapped back:

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
