With the sixty-fourth overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots reached for Stanford’s safety, Jordan Richards.
Since joining the team, Richards has fallen short of his expectations. In two years, he’s had 23 tackles, two passes defended, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery. Richards finished 2016 with three total tackles and was inactive for all of New England’s playoff games. Despite his low production in the regular season, Richards exhibited good potential with a red zone interception against the Giants last summer.
Ahead of the 2015 draft, NFL.
