Trent Richardson waived by Colts

Trent Richardson

Trent Richardson was waived by the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday and is now one step closer to being out of the league.

The No. 3 overall pick in the 2012 draft was traded by the Cleveland Browns to the Colts after two games in the 2013 season for a first-round pick. Richardson was unproductive with Indy and by the end of last season he had fallen so low on the depth chart he became a healthy scratch for some of their games.

Richardson is due nearly $3.2 million next season from Indy, but the two sides are in a dispute over that money. We have a feeling that those will be the last millions he earns in the league.

T-Rich only averaged 3.3 yards per carry last season and hasn’t topped more than 3.6 ypc during his career. He’ll be lucky to be on a roster next season.

And it what is looking like one of the biggest wastes of a trade in recent memory, the Browns drafted Johnny Manziel with the pick they got from Indy.
