Daterraion Richardson brings veteran grit and run-stuffing heft to SEMO’s defensive front
In the latest available information, Richardson is a 5-foot-11, 305-pound senior defensive lineman for Southeast Missouri State whose value comes from low-center leverage, veteran experience, and consistency in the trenches rather than flashy box-score production[2][7]. In 2019, he started 13 games and recorded 21 tackles with four tackles for loss, and SEMO also listed him as a preseason second-team All-OVC defensive lineman, which points to real respect from the program[5][3]. Beyond the stats, he’s been described as a leader and high-character student-athlete, so he looks like the kind of tough, dependable interior defender coaches trust on early downs[3][8].
