Antonio Richardson Retires After Being Cut By Vikings
Antonio Richardson inspired comparisons to Erik Williams, so impressive was his athletic talent at the tackle position while a member of the Tennessee Vols football team.
The talented Richardson might have gone as high as the second round in the 2014 draft had it not been for concerns about the condition of his knees.
Teams shied away from using a draft pick on Richardson, causing him to fall all the way out of the draft. After the seventh round, the Vikings took a chance on Richardson and his dodgy knees by signing him as an undrafted free agent.
