Wed Sep 23 2015 | 13:39 | Richardson signed to Texans' practice squad |
Richardson has been signed to the Texans' practice squad, the Houston Chronicle's Aaron Wilson reports. |
Though Arian Foster's Week 3 status has yet to be solidified, the addition of Richardson is probably more tied to the fact that fellow RB Jonathan Grimes missed practice Wednesday. |
Sat Sep 5 2015 | 15:09 | Richardson released by Jets on Saturday |
Richardson was released by the Jets on Saturday, Seth Walder of the NY Daily News reports. |
Zac Stacy, another former Ram, beat out Richardson for the No. 3 spot on the depth chart. Chris Ivory is set to lead the New York backfield, with Bilal Powell likely getting a good portion of the passing-down work. Richardson, meanwhile, may have to wait until next preseason to get another shot at making an NFL roster. |

Richardson (concussion) gained 72 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries, adding one reception (one target) for 11 yards, in Thursday's preseason game against the Eagles. |
Richardson got one last chance to compete for a roster spot against Zac Stacy, who finished with 20 carries for 68 yards, adding two receptions (two targets) for 30 yards and a touchdown. Stacy is the favorite to lock down the job and seemingly did nothing to hurt his chances. One of the two, likely Richardson, will be released within the next few days. |

Richardson (concussion) missed Saturday's game against the Giants. |
Richardson is competing with Zac Stacy for the role of No. 3 running back, and he actually played ahead of Stacy in last week's game. However, the missed time certainly isn't helping his cause as he tries to earn a roster spot. His situation likely won't be resolved until final cuts are made next week. |

Richardson (concussion) did positional drills while wearing a non-contact jersey at Thursday's practice, NJ.com reports. |
Richardson was the third back to enter the second preseason game, ahead of Zac Stacy, but quickly was forced from the game with the concussion. It would appear that he and Stacy are competing for the third running back role on the team. With the Jets expected to keep fullback Tommy Bohanon, they're likely to only carry three running backs on the regular season roster. Based on his practice participation, he's likely doubtful for Saturday's game against the Giants. |

Richardson suffered a concussion in Friday's preseason contest against the Falcons, nj.com reports. |
With Chris Ivory, Bilal Powell and Zac Stacy also in the Jets' current backfield mix, in terms of healthy options, Richardson is trying to stick with the team as a depth option. In any case, once Richardson returns to the field, it would take a couple of breaks in his favor to emerge on the fantasy radar. |

Richardson has been added to the Jets' practice squad, the Star-Ledger reports. |
Richardson is thus a Chris Johnson, Chris Ivory or Bilal Powell injury away from potentially rejoining the Jets' backfield mix. |
Sat Aug 30 2014 | 12:03 | Richardson released by Jets |
Richardson has been released by the Jets, ESPN's Rich Cimini reports. |
Richardson, who was squeezed out of a spot on the Jets by Chris Johnson, Chris Ivory and Bilal Powell, is a candidate to catch on elsewhere as a depth back once NFL roster cut-downs settle down. |

Richardson has displayed nice burst in training camp, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. |
Richardson is battling for a backup job with the Jets at this stage, but he's looked sharp out of the gate, with Cimini suggesting that it might be hard to keep the former Ram off the Jets' 53-man roster. |

Jets RB Daryl Richardson (toe) should be ready for training camp. |
Richardson has been sitting out OTAs with a turf toe injury that plagued him throughout the 2013 season. With a crowded depth chart ahead of him, Richardson will need a strong, healthy training camp to crack the Jets' final roster. |

Rams waived RB Daryl Richardson. |
Someone was going to be the odd man out in St. Louis' crowded backfield after the Rams spent the No. 75 overall pick on Tre Mason, but it was expected to be Isaiah Pead, not Richardson. Playing through turf toe, Richardson was dreadful as a sophomore after opening the season as the Rams' de facto starter, managing only 215 yards on 69 carries (3.11 YPC). Just one year removed from a successful rookie campaign as a change-of-pace back, Richardson is unlikely to make it through waivers unclaimed. |

Sat Jan 18 2014 | 11:29 | Daryl Richardson battled turf toe in 2013 |
Daryl Richardson battled turf toe the entire 2013 season and points to that as one of the main reasons he struggled as a second-year pro. |
Richardson suffered the injury in the season opener. It affected his push-off and made planting and cutting difficult. Richardson averaged just 3.1 YPC as a sophomore and didn't even dress for the final eight games. GM Les Snead remains confident Richardson can return to a prominent offensive role, but for now the Rams want Richardson to stay off his feet and let the toe heal. |

Fri Dec 27 2013 | 15:11 | Daryl Richardson listed as doubtful |
Daryl Richardson (thigh) is listed as doubtful for Week 17. |
After averaging 4.8 YPC as a rookie in 2012, Richardson's disappointing sophomore year ends with a 3.1 clip and a lost starting job to Zac Stacy. Richardson may have a place in St. Louis' long-term plans, but only as a perimeter-oriented change-of-pace back. His value in Dynasty fantasy leagues is minimal. |

Richardson is listed as questionable for Week 15 with a thigh injury. He's been scratched weekly due to injuries and poor performance. D-Rich's YPC has dropped to 3.1 among 69 rushing attempts after averaging 4.8 YPC in 2012. |

Rams declared RB Daryl Richardson, CB Brandon McGee, C Scott Wells, OG Shelley Smith, OT Mike Person, DT Jermelle Cudjo, and DE Gerald Rivers inactive for Week 14 against the Cardinals. |
Richardson remains behind Isaiah Pead as the No. 3 running back. Wells has a broken fibula. RG Harvey Dahl is back from his MCL injury. |

Rams RB Daryl Richardson (foot) is inactive for Week 10 against the Colts. |
As is TE Lance Kendricks (finger). Richardson's absence means Zac Stacy should be backed up by Benny Cunningham, with Isaiah Pead perhaps getting a touch or two. Either way, Stacy is going to cede very few touches to his backups. Also inactive for the Rams are QB Brady Quinn, OG Harvey Dahl, OL Barrett Jones, T Mike Person and DE Gerald Rivers. OT Rodger Saffold is taking Dahl's place at right guard. |

Daryl Richardson (foot) was downgraded from limited practice Thursday to no practice on Friday and is questionable for Week 9. |
Whereas Zac Stacy practiced on both Thursday and Friday and appears all set to play against the Titans, change-of-pace back Richardson's outlook is less clear. Richardson is not worth using in any fantasy leagues this week. |
