Richard Sherman: (Back) Misses Practice Thursday

Sherman (back) was absent from practice Thursday.

Analysis:

After picking off 20 passes in the first 48 regular season games of his career, Sherman has yet to notch his first of the current campaign. With two passes defended on the ledger through seven outings, he isn't inducing the opportunities that characterized his first three years in the league, which places a damper on his IDP potential. In any case, keep a close eye on his status as the weekend draws near.
