Jets bring back FB Richardson

Football Betting Lines

09/07/2010 - Florham Park, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Jets re-signed Tony Richardson on Tuesday, just two days after releasing the veteran fullback.

He had re-signed with the team in March after blocking last season for the NFL's top rushing offense, which was led by veteran Thomas Jones and rookie Shonn Greene.

Used almost exclusively as a blocker, Richardson had just 17 rushing attempts in his two seasons with the Jets. The three-time Pro Bowl selection previously played two seasons for Minnesota following a long-term assignment clearing paths for Kansas City backs.

Richardson broke into the league with the Chiefs in 1995 and had the most prolific season of his career with them in 2000, when he carried 147 times for 697 yards and caught 58 passes for 468 yards, career-highs in each category.

During his 15 seasons, the Auburn product has toted 424 times for 1,714 yards and 15 touchdowns, and hauled in 205 passes for 1,512 yards and nine scores.

The Jets made several other roster moves Tuesday. They signed center Robby Felix, linebackers Joshua Mauga and Cody Brown, wide receiver Larry Taylor and defensive tackle Martin Tevaseu to the practice squad; waived wide receiver Patrick Turner; released linebacker Ricky Foley and defensive back Donovan Warren from the practice squad.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
