Roster spot looking more likely Sherfield has likely earned a roster spot after a strong preseason showing, according to ESPN's Nick Wagoner.

Impact Sherfield was the 49ers' top producing wideout during the preseason while the starters rested, developing a strong rapport with potential rookie starter Trey Lance. San Francisco's top three receivers look to be set in stone, but Sherfield has put himself in a position to step up should any of Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk or Mohamed Sanu miss time this season. Assuming he does make the cut, the undrafted Vanderbilt product will likely serve on special teams against the Lions to kick off the regular season.

Cardinals face tough choices on which veterans to keep

The Arizona Cardinals have some tough choices ahead in trying to decide which veterans to keep as they push for a playoff berth for the first time since 2015

MARCH 12, 2021 • Associated Press

Hitting the market Sherfield wasn't tendered by the Cardinals as a restricted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Sherfield was one of the team's core special-teams players, logging 221 snaps on those units during the 2020 season. The speedy receiver also caught five of his seven targets for 50 yards and will aim to take his talents elsewhere in the upcoming season.

MARCH 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sticks mostly to special teams Sherfield had five receptions (on seven targets) for 50 yards in 15 contests during the 2020 season. He also compiled nine tackles (six solo) and two fumble recoveries.

Impact As one of the Cardinals' core special teamers, Sherfield logged nearly three times as many snaps (221) in that realm as on offense (79). Considering he's a restricted free agent in the offseason, Arizona seems apt to bring him back as a cost-controlled player. If he does return, Sherfield will be hard-pressed to climb a receiving depth chart occupied by DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk, KeeSean Johnson and Andy Isabella, even with Larry Fitzgerald (groin) still contemplating whether to come back or retire.

Pats draftee, Cards coach Kingsbury back to face former team

An arm injury prevented Kliff Kingsbury from ever playing a regular-season snap at quarterback for the Patriots after they selected him in the sixth round of the 2003 draft

NOVEMBER 27, 2020 • Associated Press

Placed on COVID-19 list Sherfield was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

Impact Sherfield has either tested positive for COVID-19 or come into contact with someone who has, putting his status for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots in doubt. If he isn't able to suit up against New England, his absence shouldn't have a major impact, as he's recorded just one reception for six yards. However, the Cardinals will have to rely on more receiving depth Sunday after Larry Fitzgerald (illness) tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday.

Mostly contained to special teams Sherfield logged one snap on offense and 15 plays on special teams during Sunday's 37-34 overtime win over the Seahawks.

Impact With just one six-yard catch on the season, Sherfield holds little sway in the fantasy realm in a receiving corps composed of DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk, Larry Fitzgerald and Andy Isabella. Still, Sherfield's prowess on kick and punt coverage allows him to be a regular on the game-day roster.

Tallies special-teams tackle Sherfield wasn't targeted and notched a tackle on punt coverage during Monday's 38-10 victory at Dallas.

Impact The Cardinals made fellow wide receiver KeeSean Johnson a healthy scratch, but Sherfield handled just six of 62 snaps on offense while logging 13 special-teams plays. On the season, Sherfield has one catch on 23 offensive snaps through six contests, so he holds little to no sway in the fantasy realm.

OCTOBER 20, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Records first catch of season Sherfield caught his only target for six yards during Sunday's 30-10 road win versus the Jets.

Impact Sherfield logged a season-high nine snaps on offense and 13 on special teams on his way to his first target (and reception) of the campaign. Still, he rang in fifth in offensive snap share among Cardinals wide receivers, exhibiting his standing with the unit.
