Seahawks' Sherman deletes tweet defending cheap shot

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman appeared to deliver a cheap shot from behind to Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams in Sunday's game.

Sherman has since deleted his tweet defending the hit, but the evidence lives on in the form of a screenshot:
