Which NFL star did Richard Sherman beef with today?

Joe Nicholson, USA TODAY Sports

"Why U Mad Bro?"

It's a question that Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman irritated Patriots quarterback Tom Brady with earlier this fall after trash-talking him following Seattle's regular season win over New England.

Then there was the incident after the Seahawks' playoff win over the Redskins where Washington offensive lineman Trent Williams swung his giant paw at Sherman's face.

SURPRISE!: Jets' Revis still 'speechless' over trade rumors

Now New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis is the latest Pro Bowl player to have words with Sherman, even if they are being exchanged solely over Twitter. Irritated by Sherman asking random fans during Super Bowl week which of the two of them is the better corner and Sherman tweeting out side-by-side stats last month, the Jets star finally reached a breaking point Wednesday.

Via @Revis24:

I never seen a man before run his mouth so much like girl. This dude just steady putting my name in his mouth to get notoriety @rsherman_25
My boy @JohnGeiger got more followers then @rsherman_25. Sit down young pup & wait your turn

I'm not sure how Sherman's total number of Twitter followers affects his play on the field, but carry on. Here's Sherman's retort.

@Revis24 don't need ya name... Ur name will be irrelevant once u step back on the field bruh. Get ya picks up!
@Revis24 one season u will get 8 picks.... But it won't happen anytime soon... I did it in my 2nd season... So u have something to chase
Got off my flight to this hilarious convo. So I have 8 picks 3 ff and a sack. My season stats looking like Revis career stats
For the QB not throwing his way argument. In his 2nd year they were throwing his way. I still doubled his picks

Interesting argument by Sherman, pointing out that Revis will no longer hold the title as best corner once he returns from his torn ACL injury and also taunting him for never making 8 interceptions in a season. Your move, Revis Island.

That's like you saying your better then Deion Sanders & since he's not playing no more he's irrelevant for what he's done. @rsherman_25
Hey everyone @rsherman_25 wants to be a lockdown corner. He wants to be in the talks of a lockdown corner. So follow him so he can become 1!
This dude just interrupted my NBA 2k game cause he has draSms to be a lockdown corner!!! HAHA #keepdreaming

Sigh. Only six and a half months till Week 1.
