Richard Sherman will undergo Tommy John surgery on his left elbow.
Sherman, who suffered ligament damage in his left elbow during the NFC Championship Game against the Packers, practiced for and played in the Super Bowl while making tackles and plays using his left arm.
Tommy John surgery is a procedure in which the ulnar collateral ligament undergoes reconstruction using a tendon from elsewhere in the body.
Seattle Seahawks cornerback Jeremy Lane suffered a broken arm during Super Bowl XLIX, an injury that Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll deemed 'significant' on Monday.
Lane suffered the injury after intercepting Tom Brady in the first quarter of Sunday's game, and broke his arm on the same play during the return.
