Compact Powerhouse DT with Elite Intensity for Alabama A&M
Liston Richardson, a 5-10, 251-pound junior DT at Alabama A&M, stands out not for size but for his explosive lower-body strength and relentless, high-intensity play that consistently disrupts opposing backfields. In the 2023 season, he recorded 4 solo tackles, 1.5 sacks, and 1 forced fumble, proving his ability to make game-changing plays despite being undersized for the position. His Prichard, Ala. roots fuel a gritty, no-nonsense personality that teammates and coaches describe as 'the engine of the defense.' Richardson has no known injury history, maintaining peak conditioning year-round, and his intensity level is unmatched in practice and games. He’s a perfect fit for teams seeking a DT who brings maximum effort, quickness, and a disruptive mindset over bulk—ideal for stopping runs and pressuring QBs in space.
