Richard finds the end zone twice
Jalen Richard got big praise from head coach Jon Gruden this past week, as he feels Richard is the team’s Most Valuable Player. Richard does have incredible talent, in both the run, and passing attacks, and it is pretty incredible that he has not found the end zone at all this season.
Richard figures to play another big role in the Raiders offense on Sunday, as the team is lacking talent at the wide receiver position, as well as at running back. If the Raiders offense does get rolling against the Ravens, look for Richard to be a focal point, and he should find the end zone for the first time all season.
Baltimore has one of the better defenses in all of football, and the Raiders could be in for a game that sees them score less than 20 points. However, if the defense can force some turnovers against the rookie quarterback, they could find themselves in some good field position opportunities, giving Richard the opportunity for six.
