News

  • Finishes with only 261 total yards

    Richard finished 2020 with a 22/123/1 rushing line and 19/138/0 receiving line in 13 games.

    Analysis: Richard didn't provide much of a return in the first season of a two-year, $7 million extension, with his role largely limited to obvious passing situations or garbage time. Even if they aren't ready to use Josh Jacobs in a three-down role, the Raiders aren't likely to bring Richard back at his scheduled $3.5 million cap hit for 2021. His return to the team likely would hinge on accepting a pay cut.

  • Hits COVID-19 list

    The Raiders placed Richard on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard's placement on the list indicates that he's either tested positive for the virus or has been deemed a close contact of an infected person or persons. If Richard doesn't clear all health-related protocols and is ineligible to play in Sunday's season finale against Denver, Theo Riddick would step in as Las Vegas' No. 3 running back behind Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker.

  • Totals 23 yards on three touches

    Richard rushed for 19 yards on two carries and caught his only target for four yards in Saturday's 26-25 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Despite being dealt only three touches, Richard managed to produce more total yards than fellow backup running back Devontae Booker on Saturday. The duo is slated to continue providing depth behind starter Josh Jacobs in Week 17, but Richard could see a couple more opportunities with the Raiders officially removed from playoff contention.

  • Full-go at practice

    Richard (chest) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, Josh Dubow of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Richard reinjured his sternum before last Thursday's loss to the Chargers. He played through the injury but logged just 10 total snaps. With a full-speed practice to start the week, Richard should be 100 percent for a Week 16 matchup against the Dolphins.

  • Reinjured in pregame warmups

    Richard reinjured his sternum during pregame warmups Thursday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Richard still managed to suit up against the Chargers and draw five targets, but his injury paved the way for Theo Riddick to handle a slight uptick in snaps. The trusty change-of-pace man will benefit from a few extra days of rest before the Raiders face the Dolphins on Dec. 26.

  • Draws five targets in loss

    Richard rushed twice for 10 yards and caught four of five targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Despite the return of starting running back Josh Jacobs (ankle), Richard managed to match his season high of four receptions as the Colts' lead grew throughout the second half. Richard has logged more than 20 offensive snaps in back-to-back contests, but his role figures to once again be game-script dependent on Thursday Night Football against the Chargers this week.

  • No. 2 role translates to five touches

    Richard rushed for 11 yards on four carries and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Richard handled primary backup duties at running back with Josh Jacobs (ankle) sidelined, but the former was dealt just five touches in 32 offensive snaps Sunday. Fill-in starter Devontae Booker couldn't get much going either with 51 total yards on 17 touches, but he figures to remain the No. 1 option in Week 14 against the Colts if Jacobs is forced to miss another contest.

  • Could factor into Week 13 game plan

    Richard, who has missed the last two games, may play a bigger role than normal Sunday versus the Jets with Josh Jacobs (ankle) ruled out, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard was sidelined of late due to a chest injury and illness, but he's poised to help fill in with Jacobs on the pine. Still, Devontae Booker is expected to lead the Raiders backfield, so Richard could merely see a little extra volume as a pass catcher. On the campaign, Richard has hauled in 12 of 15 targets for 90 yards while averaging 5.9 YPC on his 14 rushes.

  • Back to work Wednesday

    Richard (illness/chest) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Richard missed last week's loss to the Falcons with an illness, but as evidenced by this news, he appears on track to return in Week 13. Now healthy, Richard will likely assume his usual kick return role, as well as work as a change-of-pace back behind Josh Jacobs (ankle) and Devontae Booker for Sunday's game against the Jets.

  • Officially out Sunday

    Richard (illness) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Analysis: This illness hasn't been linked to COVID-19, so Richard has a chance to return next week against the Jets. Josh Jacobs should handle a lion's share of the backfield work Sunday, while Devontae Booker and, to a lesser extent, Alec Ingold rotate in.

  • Not expected to play Sunday

    Richard (illness) isn't expected to play in Sunday's game against the Falcons, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: This will become official when the Raiders reveal their inactives list around 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. This illness isn't related to COVID-19. Richard's absence leaves Josh Jacobs, Devontae Booker and fullback Alec Ingold as the lone options in the backfield.

  • Good to go

    Richard (chest) is absent from the Raiders' final injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Falcons, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After consecutive days being limited at practice, Richard was a full participant Friday. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role providing depth in the backfield behind Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker.

  • Limited Wednesday

    Richard (chest) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: It's the first time Richard has practiced since suffering the chest injury Week 10 against the Broncos. The 27-year-old could avoid an injury designation if he puts in a full practice Thursday or Friday.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Richard (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Richard will be forced to miss his first game of the season due to a chest injury. With Theo Riddick (undisclosed) on the COVID-19 list, the Raiders won't have the benefit of much depth behind Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker on Sunday.

    Published: Sun, Nov 22 at 4:02pm by Rotowire.com

  • Deemed questionable for Week 11

    Richard (chest) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard didn't practice all week after suffering a chest injury in last Sunday's win over the Broncos, so he may be on the wrong side of questionable. Regardless, Devontae Booker appears to have usurped Richard as the No. 2 running back behind Josh Jacobs, so Richard isn't expected to play much if he suits up. Theo Riddick likely will handle some work on passing downs if Richard is ruled out.

  • Still missing practice

    Richard (chest) didn't suit up in Thursday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard missed practice for the second straight day dealing with the chest injury he suffered in last week's win over the Broncos. Richard is now in danger of missing Sunday night's game against the Chiefs, which would mean Theo Riddick could be active for the contest. Richard will likely need to log some form of practice time Friday to have a chance to play in Week 11.

  • Unable to practice Wednesday

    Richard (chest) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Richard left early in this past Sunday's win over the Broncos, but postgame X-rays didn't reveal a serious injury. Nevertheless, his injury could still force him to miss some time. Devontae Booker has usurped Richard as the No. 2 behind Josh Jacobs anyway, but Theo Riddick could be active for this Sunday's game against the Chiefs if Richard can't go.

  • X-rays come back negative

    Richard (chest) received negative results from his postgame X-rays, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard was forced out of Sunday's 37-12 win over the Broncos in the first half, before he had the opportunity to log a carry or be targeted. Devontae Booker impressed in his increased opportunity after Richard's departure, scoring twice while handling 16 carries for 81 yards. It's certainly encouraging that Richard's X-rays didn't reveal a serious injury, but a timetable for his recovery remains undisclosed.

  • Picks up chest injury

    Richard was forced out of Sunday's game against the Broncos with a chest injury.

    Analysis: Richard didn't receive a carry or a target before exiting in the first half. He gets most of his tread on passing downs, and now Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker are the only remaining tailbacks for Las Vegas.

  • Limited role in win

    Richard rushed once for three yards and caught his only target for 19 yards in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Richard was dealt just two touches as the Raiders were able to rely on fellow running backs Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker with a lead for much of the second half. Richard's nine offensive snaps also marked a low since the season opener. The Raiders will be favored Week 10 against the Broncos, which might not bode well for Richard's usage if they're able to get ahead relatively early again.

  • Totals 18 yards in win

    Richard took one carry for six yards and caught his only target for 12 yards in Sunday's 16-6 win over the Browns.

    Analysis: Windy conditions in Cleveland forced the Raiders to rely on their ground game as Josh Jacobs amassed 128 yards on 31 carries, while Devontae Booker also contributed with five rushes for 29 yards. Richard actually out-snapped Booker by a small margin, but the former was limited to two touches after averaging just 3.4 yards per carry in a Week 7 loss to the Bucs.

  • Leads team with 24 rushing yards

    Richard rushed for 24 yards on seven carries in Sunday's 45-20 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Richard's seven rushing attempts were a season high while his 24 yards actually led the team Sunday, but he wasn't targeted in the passing game despite Las Vegas playing from behind for the entirety of the second half. The Raiders will look to improve upon a disappointing 3.2 YPC during their upcoming Week 8 tilt against the Browns.

  • Adds four receptions vs. Chiefs

    Richard took one carry for four yards and caught four passes on five targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 40-32 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Richard did not appear to be hampered by the minor ankle injury that limited his practice participation earlier in the week, ultimately notching a season high in receptions Sunday. Richard's ceiling figures to remain capped following the Raiders' Week 6 bye, however, as fellow running backs Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker are at full strength.

  • Back to work Thursday

    Richard (ankle) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Richard was limited during practice Wednesday after tweaking his ankle during Sunday's loss to Buffalo. Now appearing healthy enough to suit up in game action, he'll assume his usual depth role at running back while working as the team's primary kick returner.

    Richard (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard appeared to tweak his ankle during Sunday's loss to Buffalo, and, as evidenced by this news, the issue appears to still be bothering him. Expect his practice status throughout the week to shed more light on his chances of suiting up in Week 5. If he's unable to go, Devontae Booker could see an uptick in snaps.

  • Dealing with ankle injury

    Coach Jon Gruden said Monday that Richard tweaked his ankle during Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Bills, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Gruden said he isn't yet sure about Richard's status for Week 5's upcoming matchup in Kansas City. Richard played his usual change-of-pace role versus Buffalo, recording one carry for six yards while securing two of four targets for 10 yards. If he were to miss any time, Devontae Booker would stand to handle an expanded role behind top running back Josh Jacobs.

  • Tallies three receptions in loss

    Richard rushed for 14 yards on his only carry and caught all three of his targets for eight yards in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots. He also registered a 22-yard kickoff return.

    Analysis: Richard earned a season-high four offensive touches as the Raiders trailed for the entirety of the second half in New England, but the reserve running back averaged only 2.7 yards per catch Sunday. He could see additional work in the passing game out of the backfield in Week 4 if the Raiders fall behind early to the undefeated Bills.

  • Finds end zone in stadium opener

    Richard registered 26 rushing yards and a touchdown on two carries, and he also logged 30 yards on his only kickoff return during Monday's 34-24 win against the Saints.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old back overcame a fumble to provide Las Vegas with a crucial fourth-quarter score, taking a Derek Carr pitch and streaking 20 yards down the right sideline as the Raiders captured a two-possession lead with 7:43 remaining on the clock. Richard got zero carries and just one offensive touch in the season opener against Carolina, but a game-breaking play such as this may slightly increase his involvement in the coming weeks.

  • Limited to one touch Week 1

    Richard caught his lone target for 15 yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Richard was expected to be the No. 2 option behind workhorse Josh Jacobs, but fellow running back Devontae Booker was dealt seven touches as he took four carries for 29 yards and caught three passes for 23 yards, while Richard played just seven offensive snaps. Hunter Renfrow also handled punt returns instead of Richard, so the latter's overall involvement (or lack thereof) should continue to be monitored in Week 2 against the Saints.

  • Retains third-down role in Vegas

    Richard will line up as the No. 2 running back with the Raiders and is also expected to return punts, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Richard faced competition for his pass-catching role in training camp, as the team drafted former wide receiver Lynn Bowden to play running back and signed Theo Riddick in August. However, due to a favorable contract and his own merit, Richard secured the No. 2 job behind Josh Jacobs while Bowden was shipped to Miami. Last season, Derek Carr completed 92 passes to running backs, and Richard accounted for 36 of those receptions while DeAndre Washington logged 36 as well. Washington is no longer…read more

  • Should have role in 2020

    Richard is expected to retain a pass-catching role out of the backfield in 2020, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Richard signed a two-year, $7 million contract back in February, while fellow running back DeAndre Washington departed for Kansas City. The Raiders clearly have been pleased with Richard's work on passing downs, but they also have a starter (Josh Jacobs) who has shown some receiving skills and a rookie third-round pick (Lynn Bowden) who could eventually challenge Richard. While he may be able to match last year's modest production, Richard isn't likely to approach his 2018 peak of 68 receptions…read more

  • Inks two-year extension

    Richard (ankle) signed a two-year contract extension with the Raiders on Wednesday, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Richard has spent his entire four-year NFL career in Oakland, and he's now set to remain with the Raiders as the team transitions to Las Vegas. The 26-year-old plays a valuable change-of-pace role in the Raiders offense, and he also offers upside in the kick return game on special teams. In the event that workhorse running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) manages to improve as a pass catcher in his sophomore season, however, it could detract from Richard's usage out of the backfield.

  • Sports walking boot

    Richard was spotted wearing a walking boot Monday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: It appears Richard was banged up during Sunday's season finale against the Broncos. The 26-year-old running back recorded three carries for 20 yards and caught both targets for 39 yards in the loss. No details about the nature of his injury have been revealed, but it's worth keeping an eye on since Richard will be an unrestricted free agent in March. He finished the year with 39 rushes for 145 yards (3.7 yards per carry) and 36 receptions for 323 yards.

  • No. 2 role on tap Week 17

    Richard is set to serve as the No. 2 running back behind DeAndre Washington in Sunday's Week 17 tilt against the Broncos with Josh Jacobs (shoulder) inactive for the contest.

    Analysis: Richard couldn't do much with a similar opportunity in Week 16 against the Chargers, rushing just five times for 11 yards and notching four receptions for another 18 yards. He'll get another chance Sunday against a Denver defense allowing an elevated 120.3 rushing yards per contest at home.

    Richard rushed for 11 yards on five carries and caught all four of his targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Richard was briefly sidelined by a minor ankle injury during Sunday's tilt as well, but he returned to handle backup duties behind spot-starter DeAndre Washington while rookie Josh Jacobs (shoulder) was held out entirely. Jacobs participated in Tuesday's walk-through, so he'll have a chance to return in Week 17 with the Raiders not yet mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

  • Garners just three touches

    Richard rushed once for 11 yards and caught two passes for 25 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Richard enjoyed a slight increase in usage during Week 14's loss to the Titans since Josh Jacobs (shoulder) was out, generating 46 yards on nine touches. However, Jacobs played against the Jaguars and rushed 24 times for 89 yards, leaving Richard and DeAndre Washington with limited utility. Whether Jacobs is able to play in Week 16 against the Chargers remains to be seen, but if Jacobs sits, Richard is still likely the No. 2 backup behind Washington.

    Analysis: Richard's Week 14 outlook was a bit more promising heading into Sunday's tilt with rookie Josh Jacobs (shoulder) sidelined, but DeAndre Washington turned out to be the primary beneficiary during Jacobs' absence. Although Richard logged a season-high nine touches, Washington compiled 53 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries to go along with six receptions for 43 yards on seven targets.

  • On tap for expanded opportunity

    Richard is in line for a sharp increase in workload Week 14 against the Titans with Josh Jacobs (shoulder) declared inactive for the contest.

    Analysis: Richard should see a nice increase from the single-digit carries he's logged in every game this season with Jacobs out of action, although backfield mate DeAndre Washington will be around to share in the workload. The Raiders come into Week 14 with the seventh-highest rushing play percentage (45.5) in the league, but it remains to be seen if coach Jon Gruden will lean that heavily on the ground attack with the star rookie sitting.

    Analysis: Richard also amassed 60 kickoff return yards on three attempts, but he was relatively uninvolved from an offensive standpoint just one week after leading the Raiders in receiving during a similar blowout loss to the Jets. Rookie starter Josh Jacobs handled 17 carries for 104 yards, limiting Richard and fellow backup DeAndre Washington to a combined seven touches between the two.

  • Leading receiver in blowout loss

    Richard rushed twice for four yards and caught six of seven targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 34-3 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Richard saw some extra playing time with Josh Jacobs getting removed in the third quarter of the blowout loss to avoid any potential injuries to the starter. The receiving back made the most of his usage, leading the team in catches, targets and receiving yards thanks to his work on checkdowns. While Richard could get some extended opportunities if the Raiders fall behind against the Chiefs in Week 13, he remains little more than a fringe PPR play.

  • Leads team in receiving Thursday

    Richard caught four passes on as many targets for 43 yards and ran twice for no gain in Thursday's 26-24 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Richard's 43 receiving yards led the Raiders, and the reserve running back also tallied a season-high four catches Thursday. He's now amassed 111 total yards over the past two weeks. Rookie Josh Jacobs continues to handle a bulk of the carries out of the backfield, but Richard is fulfilling his role as a pass-catching option and fellow backup DeAndre Washington still factors into the mix as well.

  • Season high in receiving yards

    Richard caught three of four targets for 56 yards and ran twice for 12 yards Sunday in the Raiders' 31-24 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Lead back Josh Jacobs (28 carries, two targets) once again took on a heavy workload, but there was still enough room for Richard to play a third of the Raiders' offensive snaps as a change-of-pace back. Richard capitalized on the few touches he received, setting a new season high with 70 total yards. Jacobs is managing a shoulder injury heading into a Thursday night matchup with the Chargers in Week 10, but since he's still expected to play and take on a normal snap count, Richard probably…read more
