One of the biggest games of Richard Sherman’s career is coming up on Sunday night when the Seattle Seahawks play in Super Bowl XLIX. However, there is a major decision that is facing Sherman that could end up costing him a chance to play in the game. Sherman’s girlfriend Ashley Moss is scheduled to give birth to their son in the next week. If she goes into labor on Sunday, Sherman will have to decide whether or not it is more important to see his son be born or playing in the game. [lead image via Elsa / Getty Sports]
Sherman brought Ross with him to Glendale, the site of Sunday’s game, just in case to make sure that if Ross had the baby before Sunday, he would be there to see it. This is a huge decision though for Sherman and one that seems very logical on the surface of what to do. Sherman should be with his girlfriend if she goes into labor just in case anything goes wrong. It is just a game after all.
This is something that every Seahawks fan doesn’t want to see happen especially with the chance that the team wins their second straight Super Bowl. However, it is very possible as well that Sherman has to leave the game early Sunday due to his injured elbow. It is going to be a very exciting and stressful next few days for Sherman wondering what is going to happen next.
