Cornerback Sam Richardson started rattling off names in the secondary. By the time he was done, he wasn’t really done. He had one more thing to say.
“We have some talented guys,” Richardson said. “I am not trying to toot our own horn, but our secondary is pretty tough.”
On paper, the defensive backfield looks to be the strength of the defense. But the group has a ways to go to show that it is as tough as Richardson thinks it can be this season.
