Sheldon Richardson

Richardson interests me as the classic itinerant warrior. A first-round pick out of his hometown Missouri program, he had the talent to anchor any defensive line, yet his career took him through the Jets, Seahawks, Browns and Vikings, the latter twice. I read that not as instability but as proof of demand: a disruptive interior force teams kept wanting. Defensive tackles do the brutal, thankless grunt work that frees up the stars, and Richardson built a long career on exactly that. There is something honest and admirable about a journeyman who keeps getting called back to the trenches.
