Oakland Raiders confirm Trent Richardson signing

The Oakland Raiders have announced that they have signed free agent running back Trent Richardson.

The 24-year-old was released by the Indianapolis Colts due to his underwhelming performances, just 18 months after the club traded their first-round pick in the 2014 Draft to sign him from the Cleveland Browns.
