News broke on Tuesday night that Patrick Peterson of the Arizona Cardinals was the league's highest-paid cornerback after a new five-year extension. He promptly tweeted the news.

— Arizona Cardinals (@AZCardinals) July 30, 2014 Richard Sherman was a little miffed by the announcement, especially given he's widely hailed as the league's best corner. Naturally he was ready to retweet interesting comparisons between the two.
Richard Sherman and Patrick Peterson combined to allow 8 touchdown passes in 2013. Peterson gave up seven of those.
— Cody Swartz (@cbswartz5) July 30, 2014 The jab wasn’t received too well, so Peterson fired back.

— Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) July 30, 2014 BOOM! Seriously, people should start learning that Sherman is always two steps ahead. (This isn’t the first time Sherman and Peterson have traded tweet barbs.)
