Richard comes with a strong resume of developing defensive backs. He was the defensive backs coach in Seattle during the prime Legion of Boom days. Those team of course went to two Super Bowls winning one of them.
He was promoted to Defensive Coordinator in Seattle when Dan Quinn went to Atlanta to become their head coach. He spent three seasons as their defensive coordinator before being fired in 2017.
On Monday the Steelers made a request to interview Giants defensive coordinator Patrick Graham.
