Chris Richard brings veteran safety value and back-end toughness to Louisiana
Chris Richard is a former Louisiana strong safety whose profile points to a physical, assignment-sound defender with real versatility: he was listed at 6-0, 195, played both linebacker and safety during his Cajuns career, and in the 2008 season he logged 8 tackles, including 7 solo stops, plus a sack. He stood out more for reliability and edge than splash plays, and his early-career injury interruptions matter when evaluating durability. If you want a sturdy, no-drama defensive back who can handle contact and support the run, he fits the mold.
