Richardson showed much potential in his rookie season, not starting a single game, but still gaining 475 rushing yards on 98 attempts, as well as 24 receptions for 163 yards.[3] His best week came in Week 2 of the regular season against the Washington Redskins where he rushed 15 times for 83 yards.[4]
