VIDEO: Richard Sherman Trolls Kirk Cousins Over Signature Catchphrase After Picking Him off
By Karl Rasmussen
It's probably in Kirk Cousins' best interest to just not challenge Richard Sherman in the NFC Divisional Round. After avoiding the star cornerback in the first half, Cousins tried to link up with Adam Thielen for a quick reception, but Sherman managed to jump the route and come up with an interception. While celebrating his defensive highlight, Sherman took a shot at Cousins, saying "I like that."

After not having much thrown in his direction all game, Sherman was more than ready when he was finally challenged, and he came out on top. He wasn't afraid to flaunt his victory after the play, and he practically dared Cousins to come at him again with his comments.

We're willing to wager that Cousins won't be trying to one-up Sherman any time soon, and if he's smart, he'll be avoiding No. 25 for the rest of the night. The 31-year-old is one of the league's best cornerbacks for a reason, and Cousins is experiencing that first hand.
