Fake punt returns are all the rage - BostonCard - 09-27-2015
A day after Utah faked even the cameraman on its punt return, the Seahawks do the same to the Bears.

Apparently the board autocorrect can't differentiate between the Chicago NFL team and that pestilence from across the bay. In its mind, all ursine beings are evil.

Sherman returned some punts at Stanford, including one for a TD, so it's not an unfamiliar area for him.

Per Stanford football, he returned two for TD's while at Stanford.

Though honestly, I may trust terry more on this than the SIDs.

this site says two punt returns for TDs, but one is 21 yards with zero returns so may have been off a blocked punt
http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/richard-sherman-1.html
ADD:Â one was indeed a blocked punt
Richard Sherman returned a blocked punt 21 yards for a touchdown as Stanford rallied from a two-touchdown deficit to tie the game at 14 before halftime.

Yeah, I wasn't counting the return of the blocked punt. The other TD return was 58 or 59 yards as I recall.
