Kris Richard Brings NFL-Grade DB Pedigree and Ball-Hawking Edge
Kris Richard is a former USC cornerback known for elite playmaking—he had eight career interceptions and four defensive touchdowns as a Trojan, including a 58-yard pick-six that helped win Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Week honors in 2001, and he has since built a 13-year NFL coaching résumé. That combination of proven ball skills, West Coast familiarity, and a long track record coaching defensive backs makes him a strong fit for a team that wants a technically sharp, aggressive secondary leader with real credibility in the room.
