Richard Sherman last suited up for the Seattle Seahawks during the 2017-2018 season. And while the franchise legend won’t be putting his jersey and cleats on to run onto the field again, he will still be repping the franchise at the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft.
Sherman and former Seahawks running back Shaun Alexander are set to announce two of the team’s selections in next week’s draft.

The NFL announced that current and former players will announce draft selections live during the 2025 NFL Draft. The Seahawks have two former players making the trip to Green Bay to announce their second-round (50, 52) and third-round (82, 92) selections.
Sherman was drafted in the fifth round of the 2011 NFL Draft, and Alexander was drafted in the first round of the 2000 NFL Draft. I’m sure it’ll feel good to see Sherman, especially rep the team again, with how large his role was in the team’s dominant “Legion of Boom” defense, which many fans would say is one of, if not the brightest, days of the team’s history.
This won’t be Alexander’s first time doing this, as he announced the team’s second-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, where the team selected safety Marquise Blair.
