Amid trade rumors, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman claims he has a great relationship with the organization.

According to a report from TheMMQB.com, when asked about the possibility of being traded by Seattle, Sherman texted, “Very little chance it happens, but both sides are listening. I honestly don’t have much more to say about it than what I’ve already said. We have a great relationship. … There is a lot of love and respect. There is no bad blood.”

ESPN.com is reporting not only has Seattle fielded calls about the Pro-Bowl corner, but citing an NFL source, they have initiated trade talks during the process.

On Wednesday, Seahawks GM John Schneider confirmed that Seattle has listened to offers for Sherman.  The seventh-year pro out of Stanford has two years left on his contract valued at over $22 million dollars.
