Dominick Richards Earns Invite to Redskins Minicamp

dominick richardsFormer JMU offensive lineman Domick Richards will be given a chance to defy the odds and make an NFL roster. He announced yesterday that he was invited to participate in the Washington Redskins minicamp. If he performs well, he could be signed as an undrafted fee agent for the preseason. These types of minicamp deals/tryouts don’t often lead to a spot on the roster in the Fall, but as Leicester showed us, anything is possible.

Richards played center at JMU and started all 12 games as a redshirt senior last season. He was also recognized as All-Conference Academic team and recently was named to the National Football Foundation Hampshire Honor Society. He anchored an offensive line that helped the Dukes average 44 points and over 520 yards of offense per game.

Richards is the only JMU player to be picked up by an NFL squad this season. Fans were hoping Vad Lee would get a shot someplace, but he hasn’t thus far. We have no clue if it’s due to his injury or the perception that he’s a “system quarterback.”

Congrats to Domick. We’ll all be pulling for you.
