FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- In Sheldon Richardson's mind, where thoughts of self-importance race at 143 mph, he expects to have a bounce-back season because ... wait for the reasons ...
1. Brandon Marshall is gone.
2. He hopes to return to his natural position on the defensive line, the 3-technique tackle.
3. It's a contract year.
