Richardson finished the 2024 season with 46 total tackles (27 solo) and three pass breakups across 12 games. Richardson missed the first five games of the 2024 season with a hamstring injury, but once he returned, he provided the Raiders with a valuable addition to the secondary. The rookie finished with the third-highest amount of tackles ar cornerback on the team, finishing behind Jack Jones and Nate Hobbs. Richardson could step into a more prominent role in 2025 with Hobbs heading into the offseason as a free agent.
Richardson tallied six tackles (three solo) during the Raiders' 25-10 win over the Saints on Sunday. The rookie fourth-round pick played every single defensive snap Sunday, which he has done in five of the Raiders' seven games since the Week 10 bye. Over that span, Richardson has accumulated 34 tackles (21 solo) and two pass defenses. Richardson will look to end his rookie campaign on a strong note against Justin Herbert and the Chargers next Sunday.
Richardson finished with eight tackles (five solo) and a pass breakup in Sunday's 29-19 loss to the Broncos. The rookie, who missed the first five games of the season with a hamstring injury, also played on every defensive snap for the first time this season. Richardson played on 97 percent of the defensive snaps in Week 11 after seeing 38 combined defensive snaps over the previous four games. The fourth-round pick's status for next week will likely depend on the availability of Jakorian Bennett (shoulder) and Nate Hobbs (ankle).
Richardson (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Richardson missed the Raiders' first five games this season due to a hamstring injury sustained at the beginning of September. However, the rookie out of Mississippi State upgraded from limited work Thursday to a full practice Friday, suggesting he's moved past his hamstring issue. He's expected to serve as a depth piece in the Raiders' secondary in his NFL debut.
Richardson (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports. Richardson has still yet to suit up for the Raiders this season after sustaining a hamstring injury at the beginning of September. Expect Darnay Holmes and Sam Webb to continue seeing increased reps with the Raiders' first-team defense while Richardson continues to recover.
Richardson (hamstring) did not participate in Friday's practice and has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports. Richardson will now miss his fourth consecutive game due to a hamstring injury he sustained in early September. The rookie fourth-round pick will have to wait until at least Week 5 against the Broncos on Oct. 6 to make his NFL debut.
Richardson (hamstring) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game versus Carolina. Richardson will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL debut as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury. Las Vegas will probably continue to lean more on 2023 fourth-rounder Jakorian Bennett for snaps at corner with Richardson unavailable.
Richardson (hamstring) did not practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports. Richardson has been unable to practice in any capacity during the regular season due to a hamstring injury. Given his lack of practice, the rookie fourth-round pick is unlikely to make his NFL debut Sunday.
Richardson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 2 contest versus Baltimore, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports. Richardson is dealing with a hamstring issue that also kept him out of a Week 1 loss to the Chargers. The cornerback didn't practice in any capacity this week, so he could be at risk of being sidelined for additional contests as well. Richardson has yet to make his regular-season NFL debut after being selected by Las Vegas in the fourth round of April's NFL Draft.
