(Renton, WA)  --   Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman says he won't appeal a nine-thousand-dollar fine imposed on him by the NFL.  The penalty comes as a result of a late hit on Buffalo kicker Dan Carpenter in Monday night's game at CenturyLink Field.  Sherman jumped offsides as Carpenter attempted a field goal with three seconds remaining in the first half.  Sherman says he didn't hear a whistle and continued to try to block the kick, thinking the Bills would get a free attempt to make the field goal.
