Trent Richardson returns from bout with pneumonia, says he came in under weight

For the first time this training camp, Trent Richardson hit the field today for the Raiders. He had been missing from practice for the first five days while recovering from pneumonia which he said he had been suffering for two weeks prior to training camp.

"I had pneumonia," said Richardson. "It was in the back of my lungs, so that's nothing to play with. Coach, he made that suggestion earlier. We can't let you go out there until it's all the way gone. It's about gone, so it's the closest I've been to being healthy as far as everything else healthy.
