Trent Richardson shines in CFL performance, leads Saskatchewan over Montreal

Football is fun to him again and that’s good news for Trent Richardson.

During Friday’s matchup between the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Montreal Alouettes, Alabama fans saw a running back that returned to being the type of player he was in college.

His last touchdown recorded as a professional was three years ago in the National Football League for the Indianapolis Colts; a time period that saw Richardson at his lowest point. In every attempt to revive his career and prove doubters wrong, the once five-star rusher and first-round pick turned in his first 100-yard performance since his rookie season in 2012 with Cleveland.
