Sherman’s national television postgame rant, directed at Crabtree, moments after the NFC Championship Game last season became national news. Now he reveals the animosity continues in comments he makes during an appearance on Wednesday night’s episode of “American Muscle” (9 p.m. ET on the Discovery Channel), according to USA Today Sports.
“It’s not going to be something that goes away,” Sherman said on the show, according to USA Today. “I hope to play [Crabtree] every year for the rest of my career and choke him out. There’s not much else I can say about the subject. Nobody will understand it but him and me. That’s all that needs to [be understood].”
Sherman tipped a pass intended for Crabtree in the end zone in the final seconds of the NFC Championship Game. The tip was intercepted by Seahawks linebacker Malcolm Smith. It sealed a 23-17 victory for Seattle and sent the Seahawks to the Super Bowl, which they won 43-8 over Denver.
