Exclamation T. Richardson ready to join free agency

Chiefs | T. Richardson ready to join free agency
Sat, 25 Feb 2006 10:39:33 -0800

Adam Teicher, of the Kansas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs FB Tony Richardson is eligible for unrestricted free agency on March 3. It appears Richardson will not re-sign with the team. He said, "I definitely will become a free agent. This organization has been great to me. It's allowed me to grow as a man and as a football player. I've got a lot going on in the community. But I'm open to playing somewhere else if I can't work something out here."


Cut Crockett and sign Richardson.. He is a true FB and a great BLOCKER.

Man that's some good news.

Cutting Crockett would free a bit of cap space to sign Richardson with no problem - a TRUE fullback like you pointed out.

I would be all over this and something I can really see Al/Shell doing. They know the need for a run game and we're obviously lacking a fullback. And why not.. sign another divison rival.

Yep.
I love Crockett, but the FB hasn't been the same since Ritchie left.

NO way should we cut Crockett.
And what exactly did John Ritchie ever do?
He never took handoffs...he caught a handfull of passes in the flat, and he bled a lot.
Crockett has never let this team down...he's money on the goal line, and the guy hits holes harder then a lot of starting backs.

How bout being a lead blocker that flattened linebackers to open up holes?

I think you might have taken the original comment as an attack on Crockett but I dont think it was. It was just stateing that since we got rid of Ritchie we havent had a lead blocking fullback.
