49ers' Talanoa Hufanga on Brock Purdy, losing Jimmy G, Troy Polamalu, USC | Richard Sherman Podcast 

As a Seahawks fan, gotta admit these 49ers dudes have great personalities! Keep having a great year y'all!

Uncle Sherm hanging with the Niner Gang once again, I love all the connections he has around the league.

I enjoyed this interview. Huff is not only talented on the field but he has a level head as well. Makes me a proud Fellow Faithful!!!!! Let’s go Niners!!!!!!!!❤

Loved this kid since the day we drafted him. Amazing person and a great player! Sky is the limit for you FAM! Lets go niners!

Big shout out to Polamalu. What a great human being and so wise to recognize that character comes first.

Growing up richard sherman was my enemy after all the NFCC games and playoff games the hawks beat us in and then him signing to us in 19 and making a super bowl run and seeing how much more he likes us more than the hawks is awesome to see, Sending love to you unc sherm

Troy Polamalu never not workin ....... Love It !!!!!

I absolutely love Richard Sherman as a media personality/podcaster!!!!!!!!!!! And as a niner fan Huf is a future legend made of all the right stuff!!! Great interview

The 49ers have drafted absolutely outstandingly since Shanahan and Lynch took over. Almost all of the star players are draft picks. Bosa, Warner, Hufanga, Greenlaw, Ward, Armstead, Kittle, Deebo, Aiyuk, Jennings are all draft picks. This is a team built for long term success.

Fight On, Talanoa!!! USC and Niners fan for life!! ✌️✌️✌️

As a girl raised in Hawaii We LOVE Dem Poly Boys!!! Great interview!! Sherm needs to get that thing on the wall, I always think something is on my screen 😅❤️💛❤️💛

T.Hufanga Deserves A Pro Bowl and a 1st Team All-Pro Nod

Huf is top-shelf talent. Pro bowl level. And a great dude.

Could've easily watched another hour of that convo. Hufanga such a genuine dude, not to mention amazing Niner already. Looking forward to the next time he's on.

Dope interview. Lets go Huf! Love how Sherm pointed out his pick 6 vs Rams befo pointin out that play vs Tyreek Hill fo the tuddy. Student of the game, wit a mentor like Polamalu. Lets go 9ers! 🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴

He's only in year 2.. His upside is through the roof. Top 5 Safety potential 👌

I love hufanga and everybody else does so we're not going to talk about him. Richard what you doing is very special man and they're going to come and try to elevate you just so they can silence you please be aware.. Take it from a 49er fan who hated you to death and you won me over forever because of your true character and your dope personality. Bay area swag all day. Kendrick "Riq Roq" Wells. Keep it up brother!

Greenbay playoffs... it was this man who made that defensive TD... beast.

Huf is humble man and a outstanding football player. Really enjoyed this interview between two badasses

Love this kid. Plays so much like Troy. Very instictive

That Troy story is awesome!

Damn talanoa already preparing for tv........lol what a great conversation. Huf didn't want to shut lol let's go boys let's get it

I noticed the name early last season. I didn't register him as a player until the punt block scoop and score vs GB post season.. but since week 1 this season,, I've been blown away by this kid.. I recognized a certain palimalo look to his game weeks before I heard the stories of their relationship.. this season has been a breakout for sure

Went to my first home game this week(from KY) and picked up his jersey from the team store. Great player!!!

as a 49er fan, thanks for this sherm!!

i'm with you inlce sherm.. Huff deserve All Pro this year

Stand up guy on and off the field! Great kid! Thanks for interviewing him Rich!!

I hella enjoyed this interview uncle sherm. Replayed a few times not gonna lie 😂 and gotta admire and respect hufangas Character and Humbleness.

Hufanga is one of the most humble dudes... I hope he stays that way and keeps Ballin out fir the Niners.

This kid is incredible! Definitely a Pro Bowl in his future real soon!!

Two future HOFs chatting Defense; love it!

easily one of the most likeable player on the team

Great chemistry between these guys. Really appreciate Hufanga, playing at such a high level and still so humble. A farm boy from Oregon making the big city ~ and big playing field - life adjustment. And his big money splurge; a broken down jet ski. Love that sensibility.

Wow man this was incredible to watch. back in the early 2010's I hated Sherman because I thought he was just a cocky player but in 2014 I came to the realization Richard isn't cocky, he's confident. Rich would go out there and call out the best in the game talking trash but he wasn't talking trash, he was simply predicting the future. He would call out the best in the game and when he had them one on one, would perform just as he said he would. After coming to y senses in 2014 I started to love Rich, he became one of my favorite players in all of football. Because I started to love him I was learning more and more about him. For obvious reasons I quickly learned how intelligent he was. I mean I knew his football IQ was amongst the greatest defensive players in the league but off the field you could argue he was somehow even smarter. Come 2021 that video of Richard Sherman outside his baby mommas house pounding on her door trying to break down the door surfaced and I was absolutely heart broken. People were sharing that video and talking shit about Rich instead of thinking how out of character that was for him and clearly something was going on regarding his mental health. To see that video of someone I had grown to love so much go viral making it out seem like that was who Sherman was as a person (which isn't even close to the case) made me so sad. I was honestly convinced people were going to try and "cancel" him. I am so glad to see that wasn't the case. Being able to hear someone so intelligent talk about football and have these up and coming athletes on to discuss where they're at and tell them his expense has been incredible. We love you Sherm!!

What an epic Polamalu story. That needs to be its on clip

DANG, IMAGINE SHERM AND TALANOA working together

What a great interview! God bless Huf, stay humble player!!

Sherm, love your connection with the people you interview. Always a pleasure to listen to your pods.

GREAT interview Huf (and Uncle Sherm) are the real deal!

Huff as humble as they come. NINERS! 💪😤

You have to vote for the pro bowl. Let's go 49ers fans

Sherman I wish you were still playing . And playing for the niners . Best wishes!

I liked Talanoa Hufanga before watching this interview, but now I have a ton of more respect for him. Great guy.

I love how Hufanga went into the lab with his mentor in the leadup to the 2021 draft. He didnt test all that well at the underwear olympics, because he wasnt training to run the 40yd dash or the three cone drill. After he put up the pedestrian measurements, his stock took a hit. However, all one needed to do was to put on maybe 30 seconds of tape, and it was clear that he was a football player. Hes made of the right stuff, and we are so blessed to have the evaluators we do, buzzing around the John McVay 49ers draft room and unearthing these late round gems on a consistent basis.

Amazing interview Sherm!! Ha ha the jet ski!!!

Thank you Huf, thank you Unc Sherm! Pro Bowl bound! No doubt!

Go 49ers! Been waiting for uncle sherm to get this guy on da pod! I think Brock will be solid as a rock and 49ers will have a Purdy good chance to make a playoff run!!

Man I friggin love Huf and Sherman always coming through with the good guests! Need to cop me that Hufanga jersey fast!

I can't believe how much I use to hate Richard Sherman when he was in Seattle. I respected his skills but I hated him lol Now I love him so much and still respected him and appreciate what he brought to the Niners and I wish he was still in that locker room. Sherman for president!!!

So respectful, what a role model. The social media guidance is gold; very few would execute. Great interview.

Oh wow. Sherm is the absolute best talking Ball. Damn we're lucky to have this pod.

Unique podcast, by far the best most knowledgeable & enjoy the interaction.

I absolutely love love loved this interview. Huf is such a down to earth dude and to see him get so open with someone like Richard who knows football inside and out. is a top tier CB who knows what goes on on and off the field in SF made a perfect interview!

Huf may be my favorite 9er right now. and everyone knows I love Kittle.

Awesome interview, dang Sherman we miss you, will you ever consider coming back ?

There's too many good players on team to pick a favorite. But I knew he had it in him. And most doubted him when picked. Good to see him prove em wrong. And he's Def my top 3 fav for niners if not my fav. Too hard to pick. Was glad to see him on here

I got my hufanga jersey let’s goooo dudes a beast

This kid is a baller. I’m excited for his future, I’m sure we’ll be hearing his name a lot more.

The Troy Polamalu story is fantastic!

Boy I have to admit Sherm, when you played for the Hawks I did like you not hate just the team you played for and you kept killing us from going to the SB, and just like when you and CMC came to our NINERS boy I and everyone love you coming to play for us and you are who you are a dame good player just like all players comes to the Niners. Lastly good to see you and great memories of you playing for the Niners, and I’m one of your supporters and subscriber. Thank you

Let's not forget Manu Tuiasasopo played for the 49ers too, ( I most likely spelt his last name wrong).

I loved this interview. As a niners fan I have been loving Richard's podcast. Richard was a great player and I'm glad he now has a podcast. Hufunga is a beast and he's one of my favorite niners players as well. Keep up the good content Richard.

What a story! A kid that honors and follows wisdom shared. He has characer building habits, enjoys all aspects of life, striving for goals🎉

Great interview Uncle Sherm. Huf is going to be amazing ‼️‼️

Sherm really rooting for the niners. I love it

Love this team! I would love to see that locker room speech from Bosa!! GO NINERS!

LFG SHERM !!! Been waiting to hear a real interview from Huf

Tuff is awesome, so cool to see Richard’s imprint reflected on our secondary 😂

Thanks Richard for this interview. Love watching him play but to hear what a grounded mature guy he is was a nice treat. Ps: loved watching you play also Richard 👍 great interview

LEVI’S SOUTH LET EM KNOW HUF🔥🔥love this kid.

Damn look at that backdrop. So cool to see a player you love who loves being on your team!

I really enjoyed your show and the way you interview your guests. Good job…!!!

what a great interview with Uncle Sherm. Huff is still a bit reserved in media interviews, so it's great to see him opening up and sharing some personal stories.

I can see my self listening to Richard Sherman over and over again! Love the connection he brings to the podcast 🥳🥳 who knew I would love football 🏈 this much

Love you and yo show Sherm, God bless you

Heck of a show👊🏼

🔥 love this interview

As a Niners fan I've always had a tough time warming up to R Sherm after some pretty intense years but you doin good work bro and picked one hell of a dude to interview. Never loved my Niners like I do right now.

Awesome interview. So entertaining, and made me love 29 even more.

Happy to see Sherm's Podcast growing. Hard workin' man right there.

Awesome interview RS has real skill and enthusiasm.

Man I didn't like you when you played with the sea chickens but you are an alright man. Your knowledge and passion for the game is apparent

TERRIFIC interview! This one needs to go viral with the Faithful. Sherm is a GREAT interviewer - letting the guest speak without interrupting. Covered lots of great stuff. What a showcase for this Huf kid. Really amazing. "Gotta be lactose-intolerant and stay off the cheese!" Hilarious and insightful. GREAT interview. You can tell Sherm lights up just a bit more when he's talkin' D with a fellow DB.

Great interview. Love Talanoa!

I saw your Pops in Vegas a couple of weeks ago Sherman! Nice guy. IDK why he thought or would think I didn't like you 🤣 I told him once you left Seattle and joined my boyz, any dislike vanished. You were always one of my favorites, but it was more of a rival thing!

Dope interview !

Great video! Good to see a fellow Polynesian successful in elite Athletics. Richard Sherman is an excellent interviewer. During his career, so polarizing, but I guess he always played against my teams. Had he been on my teams I would have rooted for him. Now No mo issues!

This was a Good listen....

Richard thanks for having this podcast. I have been so against KYLE

My boy 🏈🎯💪🏽💯 9ers all day !!

Dope interview

This Was Enjoyable Watching.

Awesome interview between two awesome people

Good interview thank you

A very good interview!

Great episode!

Great interview Sherm, bang bang.

Happy Sherm had his run with the Niners for a short while and still giving love to the Red and Gold. Excellent conversation from start to finish! Hufanga an Oregon farm boy who woulda thought?

Love you Sherm!!

Fantastic video. Good luck making the pro bowl Who Dey!
