Richard Sherman hit a kicker Monday night, and he might lose his manhood because of it.
OK, that second part isn’t true, but Kaela Carpenter evidently wants it to be.
Kaela’s husband, Buffalo Bills kicker Dan Carpenter, was on the wrong end of this hit by Sherman, which saw the Seattle Seahawks cornerback slam into Carpenter’s legs on a field goal block attempt that had already been whistled dead.

Carpenter was OK, but he still had to leave the field for a play. After Seattle’s 31-25 win, his wife came to his defense with one of the boldest tweets you’ll see.

In case you’re not well-versed on farm equipment, that’s a photo of a bander, a tool used to castrate farm animals. And Carpenter’s wife joked it should be used on Sherman.
That’s a pretty aggressive joke, but fortunately, Sherman took the high road.
😂😂😂😂😂 Thank you! Have a great day

Want @richardsherman response to Kaela Carpenter Tweet suggesting castration? Told me: "It's amazing how comfortable she is saying that."

Think before you tweet, folks.
