The Facts: The Redskins continue to shed veteran players as the new regime takes over. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported Friday that Richardson is being let go by the team, per a source informed of the situation. The news comes after the Redskins cut veteran corner Josh Norman.

Diehards Line: After four seasons in Seattle, Richardson signed a five-year, $40 million contract with Washington in 2018. The team creates $2.5 million in salary cap savings with $6 million in dead money by releasing Richardson. Hampered by injuries, he appeared in just 17 games in two seasons and totaled 507 receiving yards with four touchdowns on 48 receptions. As NFL.com's Kevin suggested, the 27-year-old isn't a top-shelf wideout but could provide depth to a squad looking for a veteran. A reunion with the Seahawks, who should be in the market for a receiver to pair with Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf, could make sense after Richardson's sojourn in Washington.
