Richard Sherman has never been afraid to speak his mind when something is bothering him. Monday night was no different as the Pro Bowl corner called out Redskins receiver Pierre Garcon for pulling his hair during the game and said the receiver "doesn't matter in this league.”
Sherman told CSN Washington that Garçon was pulling at his dreads at multiple points in the game and maintained that he would do the same if he was getting shut down.

"Yeah, Pierre did a few things," Sherman said "When you can't get open, you got to do whatever you can. The crowd is acting like I'm holding him. Obviously, (on) the TV copy, you can see what happened.”
Sherman shut down Garcon as he only caught two balls for 23 yards. Garcon took to Twitter to respond to Sherman indirectly with a tweet about silence.
The Seahawks won the game 27-17 despite being swamped with penalties. The Redskin wide receivers weren't shut down completely as DeSean Jackson went off to the tune of five catches, 157 yards and a touchdown.
The Seahawks host the Dallas Cowboys this weekend as Seattle looks to improve to 4-1 on the season.
