Sheldon Richardson's teammates and coaches say all systems appear to be go for the third-year defensive end's return to action against Washington on Sunday.
"Just his personality has been outstanding," coordinator Kacy Rodgers said today. "You can see the excitement in the D-line group as well — they got one of their guys back. His whole persona, the way he carries himself, the effort he's been giving at practice this week, it's been very pleasant to have him back."
"It's good to have him back," said LB Calvin Pace, reflecting to his own suspension in 2009, for violation of the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances.
