Browns second-year running back Trent Richardson missed all four of the team's preseason games as a rookie in 2012 while recovering from knee surgery, costing him a chance to develop timing with the offensive line. That hasn't been the case this preseason, which is an opportunity Richardson has relished.
"It’s so much better," Richardson said, per NFL.com. "Last year, I just went right into the fire. Now, it’s time to get better and better each day. The offensive line is making better communication. With the timing, it’s a big, important thing. I think it’s gotten so much better over the past few weeks.
"I feel real good about this preseason, this whole camp. I think I’ve been doing fine, especially vibing with my team, the offensive line. These guys have made a bigger impact on me in the last few weeks than they did all of last year. That’s being a team, a family. That’s chemistry."
