Ex-NFL star Richard Sherman charged with DUI— second time he's faced drunk driving charges
Super Bowl champion Richard Sherman has been charged with driving under the influence more than a year after he was arrested in Washington state — the second time the defensive back has faced drunk driving charges. The former Seattle Seahawk was charged with refusing to take a breath test — defined as a gross misdemeanor in the state — which could lead to a harsher penalty, the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office told The Seattle Times. Sherman was pulled over by a Washington State trooper on I-405 just before 2 a.m. on Feb. 24, 2024, but not charged until Tuesday. 3 Richard Sherman sits on set of the Amazon Prime Thursday Night Football before an NFL football game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots on Dec. 7, 2023. AP The 37-year-old had been driving 79 mph in a 60 mph zone while 'bouncing back and forth within the lane it was traveling in,' according to police. Once he pulled over, Sherman told troopers he'd had two margaritas and refused to do a breathalyzer test, The Seattle Times reported. He did, however, agree to do some voluntary tests leading police to conclude he was under the influence and take him into custody, Police acquired a signed warrant to draw Sherman's blood roughly two hours after he was pulled over, which showed his blood-alcohol level of about 0.11, above the legal limit of 0.08. The charges were not filed until Tuesday — the day after the prosecutor's office received the blood test results from the crime lab, the report said. Sherman, 35, was previously arrested for drunk driving and domestic disturbance charges in July 2021 after police said the former Seahawk crashed his car into a construction zone then attempted to break into his in-laws' home outside of Seattle. 3 Sherman takes part in warmups before an NFL football game against the Denver Broncos, Sunday, Sept. 21, 2014, in Seattle. AP 3 Sherman celebrates after intercepting a pass by Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, on Dec. 22, 2013. MCT The case was settled in March 2022 when Sherman pleaded guilty in Seattle to two misdemeanor charges. Sherman played for the Seahawks from 2011 to 2017, helping lead the team to Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014. He later played three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers and one brief season with the Tampa Bay Bucaneers before he retired after the 2021 season. He has since worked as a pre and postgame analyst for Prime Video's 'Thursday Night Football' since 2022 and as a panelist on FS1's 'Undisputed.'

CEO behind Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers' F7 Pro helmet responds to veteran frustration
Old habits die hard — and this couldn't be more true than for Aaron Rodgers, who had his longtime helmet model banned by the NFL this offseason. Rodgers wasn't thrilled about the switch to the newer, safer, and more innovative F7 Pro — and let reporters know about it at media availability. Advertisement I recently had the opportunity to interview Certor Sports CEO Jeremy Erspamer about the F7 Pro model — and here's what he had to say in regard to veteran players, like Rodgers, giving up their old helmets: 'I feel for players like Aaron Rodgers,' Erspamer said. 'He's worn that same helmet model basically his entire career. As he said, he's never been hurt in it. I'm sure it feels like an old friend when he puts it on his head. I completely understand, from a player's perspective, that potentially causing frustration. I also understand the desire of the NFL — and for us, as helmet manufacturers — trying to develop new technology. Technology is evolving probably quicker than most people think. And the ability to protect athletes better comes along with that.' Rodgers will have plenty of time this offseason to adjust to the state-of-the-art F7 Pro — but his feedback remains valuable to Erspamer and Certor Sports as they refine both existing and in-development models.

Former NFLer Robert Griffin III was distraught when he ‘only' got $6.9M of $14M signing bonus — what happened
When the Washington Redskins signed then-rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III for his first contract in 2012, the deal's estimated $21.1 million price tag was all over the headlines. What didn't make the headlines was how much Griffin actually got to take home at the time. In a recent interview with former MMA fighter Demetrious Johnson the Mighty podcast, the former athlete revealed that the deal was structured to give him $14 million upfront as a signing bonus with the rest later, but he only saw $6.9 million appear in his bank account. Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) "I called my agent immediately,' Griffin recalls. 'I'm distraught! 'Oh my god, they took all the money out. Where is the $14 million?' And he's like, 'Rob, it's taxes.'' Griffin admits the experience stung, but it ultimately highlighted a harsh truth: many pro athletes end up broke simply because they were never taught the financial basics. It's a lesson that resonates far beyond the sports world. Rookie athletes with rare talent in their sport are often entrusted with multimillion dollar contracts, but many are woefully unprepared for this windfall. Griffin admits he wasn't ready to manage his immense fortune when he was first signed. 'I wasn't financially literate when I first got into the NFL,' he told Johnson. 'I never had that kind of money.' This is why Griffin — who was just 22 years old at the time — was unaware that marginal tax rates for multimillionaires can be as high as 50% in some states, according to SmartAsset. However, a lack of essential financial skills isn't restricted to those who earn big payouts and have complicated tax situations. On average, U.S. adults could only answer 49% of 28 personal finance questions correctly, according to the 2025 TIAA Institute-GFLEC Personal Finance Index. This rate of financial literacy has remained more or less the same over the past eight years, according to the report. The report also found how detrimental this lack of financial skills could be. Adults with low financial literacy were twice as likely to be constrained by debt, three times more likely to be financially vulnerable and five times more likely to not have at least one month of emergency savings. Simply put, learning new financial skills could help you mitigate many of the economic risks most people face. However, there is another, potentially easier way to boost your personal financial security: hiring a professional. Read more: Want an extra $1,300,000 when you retire? Dave Ramsey says — and that 'anyone' can do it If you don't have the time or inclination to learn about money, you could simply hire a professional to manage your situation for you. Experienced accountants, tax advisors, investment advisors or financial planners can help you create a better path to any of your financial goals and place guardrails on your budget to make sure you're not vulnerable. Unfortunately, only 27% of U.S. adults work with financial advisors, according to a 2024 survey by YouGov. Those who may need this assistance the most are also the least likely to work with professionals. Only 9% of adults who did not finish high school work with financial advisors, while 45% of those with postgraduate degrees do. Hiring a professional can be expensive, but the costs are often offset by the added tax savings, improved investment outcomes and better money management that an experienced advisor can offer. This could be one of the reasons why the NFL Players Association launched its Financial Advisors Program to help connect professional athletes with a prescreened list of financial professionals. The platform helps protect young rookies from financial mistakes Griffin and his peers can be at risk of making.
