So having somebody that&#8217;s been in this league for a long time as Demario sitting right beside him, it could only help him. Any player that&#8217;s self-aware and will critique themselves like that on a year-to-year basis, always good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The 2024 season was Sherwood&#8217;s breakout year when he led the league with 98 solo tackles (158 total) and had to step up after veteran LB C.J. Mosley played in only 4 games. Sherwood is excited for the opportunity to line up next to another Pro Bowl &#8216;backer in Davis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s been great,&#8221; Sherwood said about having Davis around as OTAs draw to a close ahead of next week&#8217;s mandatory minicamp. &#8220;I&#8217;ll say the only thing I could say from last year &#8212; we were a pretty young team &#8212; so when there were times where I felt like I did need someone to lean on or felt like I needed a little bit more knowledge of something. I feel like for the last few weeks of OTAs and the offseason, like he&#8217;s been there, and I&#8217;ll say you can feel his presence and it&#8217;s beneficial for everybody on the team, not just myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added: &#8220;He&#8217;s been tremendous for all of us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Having Davis in his ear will be a new experience for Sherwood, as will having Glenn calling the plays on defense.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The emphasis this year is details, so again, that&#8217;s why I want to focus on that this year, but you know, he&#8217;s very adamant on what he wants this year,&#8221; Sherwood said of his HC. &#8220;And I feel like the practices that we strung together, you could tell that we&#8217;ve been listening to him, and we&#8217;ve been trying to get the job done.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#8220;I think with Demario Davis being next to him, that&#8217;s going to help him out a lot because&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":263885,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[34591,85,9,12,56,63,65,64],"class_list":["post-263884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york-city","tag-jamien-sherwood","tag-latest-headlines","tag-new-york","tag-news","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-nyc-headlines","tag-nyc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263884","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=263884"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263884\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/263885"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=263884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=263884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=263884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
