In 2025, he played in 15 games and finished with ten special teams tackles to rank second on the Raiders. Awarded to the Saints off waivers at the conclusion of the preseason, he played in two games for the Black and Gold and recorded one special teams tackle.

A native of Cullen, La., who was a standout at both running back and cornerback at Bossier High School, Richardson spent four years at Mississippi State (2020-23), appearing in 45 games with 26 starts and recording 177 tackles (106 solo), two stops for loss, one sack, ten pass breakups and one fumble recovery. Richardson led Southeastern Conference cornerbacks in tackles in both 2022 (85) and 2023 (79).
