Richardson and the Giants agreed to a contract Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Richardson has been unable to make a roster since playing in 15 games with the Saints in 2015. He was most recently waived by the Broncos in May. The Gaints are dealing with a variety of injuries on the defensive line, so Richardson should see a healthy workload at practice right away. However, his still figures to have a long shot at making the final roster.

Richardson was waived by the Broncos on Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of the Denver Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Broncos opted to sign fellow defensive lineman Billy Winn earlier Wednesday, which comes at the expense of Richardson's roster spot. Richardson will head to the open market and will look for a training camp invite elsewhere with the hope of making a final regular-season roster. His most recent action came in 2015 with the Saints, where he played 15 games and recorded 40 tackles, half a sack and an interception.

Richardson signed a contract with the Broncos on Friday, Cameron Wolfe of the Denver Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Richardson spent 15 games with the Saints in 2015, recording 40 tackles, 0.5 sacks, one interception, and a pass deflection. He'll now look to compete for a spot on the Broncos 53-man roster this offseason.

Richardson made six tackles (two solo) in Sunday's win against the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

Richardson, an undrafted rookie free agent out of Indiana, made his first career start in Week 4, after Akiem Hicks was traded mid-week to the Patriots. While Richardson rotated playing time with another rookie, Tyler Davison, he was on the field for 38 of the Saints' 61 defensive snaps (62 percent), according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, and made two tackles for a loss. If Richardson can continue to hold down the starting gig, he could make an impact in deeper IDP leagues.
