Cut by Washington
Richardson is being released by Washington, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It isn't clear if Richardson was approached about a pay cut before the final decision was made. Either way, he'll be free to immediately sign with a new team, after making it just two seasons deep on a five-year, $40 million contract. Richardson, who will turn 28 in April, missed the final five games of 2019 with a hamstring injury. A 44-703-6 receiving line for the 2017 Seahawks represents the only productive season on his NFL resume.

Looking like a cap casualty
Richardson (hamstring) may be cut this offseason, ESPN.com's John Keim reports.
Analysis: Entering the third season of a five-year, $40 million contract, Richardson will have $2 million of his $6 million base salary become guaranteed if he's still on the Washington roster on the fifth day of the 2020 league year (March 22). Coming off a pair of injury-plagued seasons, Richardson likely needs to renegotiate his contract to have any shot at sticking around with the new coaching staff in Washington. The 27-year-old finished 2019 on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, making his…read more

Moved to injured reserve
Richardson (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It's a disappointing end to Richardson's season, as the 27-year-old simply couldn't get on the field after aggravating a hamstring injury in Week 11. It'll be interesting to see how the Redskins handle Richardson's contract in the offseason, as the former Seahawk has played in just 17 of a possible 32 games since joining the Redskins two years ago. Cutting Richardson would save the Redskins $2.5 million in cap space next year.

Out again with hammy issue
Richardson (hamstring) has been ruled out Sunday's game against the Eagles, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Richardson was able to practice in a limited capacity Wednesday and Thursday before sitting out Friday's session, so he should have a shot to play Week 16 and/or 17. His continued absence, along with that of Trey Quinn (concussion), leaves regular snaps for Kelvin Harmon and Steven Sims behind No. 1 target Terry McLaurin.

Puts in another limited practice
Richardson (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.
Analysis: Richardson has made just one appearance in the Redskins' last four games, but by maintaining some work in practice this week, he's making inroads in his recovery from a hamstring issue. Friday's injury could provide the final word on his availability for Sunday's contest against the Eagles.

Officially limited Wednesday
Richardson was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Analysis: Although interim coach Bill Callahan told Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic that Richardson practiced fully Wednesday, the official injury report said otherwise. If Callahan can be taken at his word, Richardson seems to be trending in the right direction after missing three of the last four games due to a hamstring injury. Richardson has two more chances this week to elevate to full activity in practice.

Full practice Wednesday
Richardson (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: This marks Richardson's first practice reps since he aggravated a hamstring injury Week 12 against the Lions. Because he was able to handle every rep Wednesday, he appears good to go for the Redskins' Week 15 matchup with the Eagles. In three games with Dwayne Haskins as the team's starting signal-caller, Richardson has managed eight catches (on 11 targets) for 82 yards and no touchdowns.

Richardson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Craig Hoffman of 106.7 The Fan Washington reports.
Analysis: With Richardson and Trey Quinn (concussion) both set to be inactive, Washington will roll with Terry McLaurin, Kelvin Harmon and Steven Sims in three-wide formations. Harmon has made a strong case to continue playing even if/when Richardson returns to health.

Not at practice Friday
Richardson (hamstring) isn't participating in Friday's practice, Kyle Stackpole of the Redskins' official site reports.
Analysis: After sitting out the team's Week 13 win over the Panthers, Richardson failed to practice at any point Wednesday through Friday. That all but ensures that he'll be sidelined Sunday against the Packers, though confirmation on that front won't arrive until the Redskins release their final injury report of the week later Friday.

Richardson (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Richardson has been tending to a hamstring injury since the Redskins' Week 10 bye, containing him to 15 offensive snaps Week 12 against the Lions and no other game action otherwise. He's not setting himself up to make a return Sunday at Green Bay, but two practices remain for him to do just that.

Out with hamstring injury
Richardson (hamstring) won't play in Sunday's game at Carolina, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Richardson has been one of the league's least productive wide receivers on a per-play basis, posting a 28-245-2 receiving line across 412 offensive snaps. His absence locks in rookie Kelvin Harmon for a top-three role alongside Terry McLaurin and quasi-invisible slot man Trey Quinn.

Richardson (hamstring) was held out of practice Thursday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Not practicing Wednesday
Richardson (hamstring) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Richardson aggravated a hamstring injury during Sunday's win over the Lions, leaving his status uncertain for the Week 13 tilt with the Panthers. If Richardson were to miss time due to the setback, Kelvin Harmon would stand to play an increased role on offense.

Aggravates hamstring Sunday
Richardson won't return to Sunday's game against the Lions due to a hamstring injury, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Analysis: Richardson logged his first DNP of the season Week 11 against the Jets, but after following an LP/FP/FP practice regimen in advance of this contest, he was cleared to play through his hamstring concern. It appears he's aggravated the issue, ending the day with one catch (on two targets) for six yards.

Logs full workout
Richardson (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: After upgrading from limited participation Wednesday in the Redskins' first practice session of Week 12, Richardson looks like he'll be ready to play Sunday against the Lions. Since Richardson only missed one game on account of the injury, he should immediately step back into a starting role, thereby leaving fewer snaps to go around for rookie Kelvin Harmon.

Logs limited showing Wednesday
Richardson (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday.
Analysis: Prior to logging his first absence of the season in Sunday's loss to the Jets, Richardson didn't practice at all, so he's making his first noticeable progress as he recovers from a hamstring injury. He'll attempt to be a full participant either or both of the next two days, but in any case, his status for the Week 12 game against the Lions should get some clarity when Friday's practice report is released.

Resumes individual work
Richardson (hamstring) was seen participating in individual drills during Wednesday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Richardson missed his first game of the season in the Week 11 loss to the Jets due to the hamstring injury. He'll likely need to resume practicing in full by Friday in order to gain clearance for Sunday's game against the Lions. In the event Richardson is forced out for another contest, expect Trey Quinn and Kelvin Harmon to once again see increased work alongside No. 1 receiver Terry McLaurin.

Missing first game of 2019
Richardson (hamstring) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: The hamstring injury prevented Richardson from practicing in any fashion this week, essentially ensuring that he would miss his first game of the season. With Richardson on the sideline in Week 11, Trey Quinn, Kelvin Harmon and Steven Sims should all be in line for enhanced snaps and targets behind top wideout Terry McLaurin.

No practice reps Wednesday
Richardson didn't participate in Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: A part of the 30th-ranked offense, Richardson has surpassed 40 receiving yards just twice and caught four-plus passes on three occasions through the first nine games of the season. With a hamstring injury in tow, his status will be one to monitor as the weekend approaches. If he's able to suit up Sunday versus the Jets, Richardson will be working with rookie Dwayne Haskins, which is expected to hold for the rest of the season.

Team's leading receiver in loss
Richardson hauled in four of five targets for a team-high 42 receiving yards during Sunday's 24-9 loss to Buffalo.
Analysis: The 27-year-old receiver got out to a promising start to the 2019 campaign by compiling 15 catches for 135 yards and two touchdowns between Weeks 1 and 3, but he was phased out of the offensive game plan between Weeks 4 and 7, managing just five catches for 28 yards on 12 targets. Richardson has shown signs of life over Washington's past two outings, however, finishing second and first on the team in receiving yards during losses to the Vikings and Bills, respectively.

Makes three grabs in loss
Richardson secured three of four targets for 34 yards in the Redskins' 19-9 loss to the Vikings on Thursday.
Analysis: Richardson snapped a two-game catch-less streak and checked in second to Terry McLaurin in receptions and receiving yardage on the night for the Redskins. However, he's cleared 40 yards receiving in just one game thus far this season, as he's partly fallen victim to a combination of inconsistent quarterback play and a renewed focus on the ground attack since Bill Callahan took over as head coach three games ago. Richardson will look to build on Thursday's effort when he faces the Bills in a…read more

Held without a catch again
Richardson finished without a catch on one target in Sunday's 9-0 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Facing a tough defense in steady rain, Case Keenum attempted just 12 passes, with no one player seeing more than three targets. Richardson played 75 percent of the offensive snaps, bringing him to four consecutive weeks with at least 35 plays on offense and no more than 14 receiving yards. His per-snap product this season has been among the worst in the league for any starting wideout, and a Week 8 road matchup with the Vikings on Thursday isn't likely to make things better.

Shut down by Dolphins
Richardson finished without a catch on four targets in Sunday's 17-16 win over Miami.
Analysis: Richardson dropped down to 59 percent of snaps on offense, after playing at least 80 percent each of the previous five weeks. Interim head coach Bill Callahan allotted more snaps to the tight ends, despite playing Sunday's game without Jordan Reed (concussion) and Vernon Davis (concussion). A Week 7 rebound doesn't appear too likely, as Washington will host the 49ers and their elite defense.

Held to 14 yards
Richardson caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 33-7 loss to New England.
Analysis: Richardson played 86 percent of snaps on offense, putting him at 80 percent or higher for a fifth time in as many games. The playing time hasn't translated to production apart from Week 3 (8-83-1), with the 27-year-old wideout otherwise finishing every game with four or fewer catches and no more than 36 yards. A coaching change from Jay Gruden to Bill Callahan isn't likely to help, as Callahan may try to emphasize the running game.

Struggles to produce versus Giants
Richardson caught three of five targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 24-3 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Richardson stood to play a major role in the absence of Terry McLaurin, but he didn't record a catch longer than six yards as he finished with a disappointing line. Of course, the early removal of Case Keenum didn't help matters, as rookie Dwayne Haskins struggled mightily in his first taste of game action.

Finds end zone again
Richardson caught eight of nine targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 31-15 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Richardson led the Redskins in all major receiving categories, providing a bright spot in an otherwise bleak offensive performance. The veteran brought Washington within two scores with a two-yard touchdown grab to start the fourth quarter, giving him a trip to the end zone in back-to-back weeks. Although rookie Terry McLaurin has been the main standout among the team's receivers, Richardson sports decent momentum ahead of Week 4's game at the Giants.

Finds end zone on three targets
Richardson caught each of his three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-21 loss to Dallas.
Analysis: Despite playing 87 percent of snaps on offense, Richardson finished fifth on the team in targets, behind Terry McLaurin (nine), Chris Thompson (eight), Trey Quinn (seven) and Vernon Davis (four). A nine-yard touchdown saved his day, but Richardson's target share (12.3 percent) through two games hints at some lean weeks ahead. Washington hosts Chicago on Monday Night Football in Week 3.

Draws seven targets
Richardson caught four of seven targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 32-27 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: With tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) unavailable, Washington opened the game in a three-wide formation and rarely deviated from that plan. Richardson actually logged fewer snaps (78 percent) than fellow starters Trey Quinn (97 percent) and Terry McLaurin (93 percent), but each player drew either six or seven targets in a game that saw Case Keenum attempt 44 passes.

Overcomes quad injury
Coach Jay Gruden said Thursday that he was "very encouraged" by how Richardson (quadriceps) ran in Washington's practice session, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Richardson cleared up any concern about his availability for the Week 1 matchup with the Eagles by turning in a full practice Wednesday, but Gruden's comments offer further evidence that the wideout is feeling healthy again. The 27-year-old's first season in Washington went down as an injury-plagued disappointment, with a problematic right clavicle limiting him to seven appearances before he was shut down for good after undergoing surgery. Assuming he can stay on the field in 2019, Richardson…read more

Returns from quad injury
Richardson (quadriceps) got the start and played nine snaps in Thursday's preseason game against the Falcons.
Analysis: Richardson made a brief, target-free appearance, but the important thing is that he was healthy enough to play despite coach Jay Gruden suggesting otherwise earlier this week. The speedy wideout now appears locked in as a starter for Washington's regular-season opener in Philadelphia. The team likely will put Case Keenum under center for that contest, though no decision had been announced as of Friday afternoon.

Coach Jay Gruden said Tuesday that Richardson (quadriceps) will "probably not" suit up for Thursday's preseason game against the Falcons, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.
Analysis: Richardson is nursing a quadriceps injury.

When fully healthy, Richardson is expected to serve as the team's top deep threat.

Richardson (quad) went through individual drills Monday at practice, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Analysis: Even if his participation was limited, Richardson's ability to practice in any capacity would seem to confirm that his quad injury is minor.

Analysis: Mostly a spectator in his return to practice Tuesday, Richardson was reportedly much more active Wednesday. Since his recovery from shoulder surgery was expected to drag on through the end of spring workouts, Richardson's mere availability would have been a significant development for the Redskins, let alone his active involvement in team drills.

Recovering from multiple fractures
Richardson clarified that his season-ending injury in 2018 included multiple fractures to the clavicle in his right shoulder, which required the insertion of a plate during surgery in early November, Jake Kring-Schreifels of the Redskins' official site reports.
Analysis: Richardson initially picked up the injury in the early stages of training camp, and it grew worse as the campaign wore on, limiting him in practice, resulting in an absence Week 7 and eventually forcing him to IR and under the knife. Overall, his production fell short of the investment made in him by the Redskins last March -- five years, $40 million -- as he hauled in 20 of his 35 targets for 262 yards and two touchdowns in seven games.

Analysis: The Redskins haven't signed any replacements, but they still have time to do some discount shopping and likely will look at wide receivers early in the upcoming draft.

Richardson is facing a timeline of 6-to-8 months for his recovery from season-ending shoulder surgery, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

The timing should allow for a full recovery before training camp next season, while the 2018 iteration of the Redskins is left to scramble amidst a flurry of injuries.
