FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- To paraphrase Tom Hanks, there's no crying in football, either -- at least not in Sheldon Richardson's view.
Richardson was positively unemotional Wednesday as he discussed reports that he was shopped by the New York Jets before Tuesday's trading deadline. His response was the opposite of teammate Brandon Marshall, who said he almost cried when he thought he was getting traded.
Asked if he would've reacted the same way, Richardson said, "Negative."
The Jets called the Dallas Cowboys to gauge interest in Richardson, and probably other teams as well, but they decided to retain the former first-round pick.
