Draft Diamonds Free Agent Interview: Chris Richardson, Defensive Back

Hello, I am @jrberendzen on Twitter and this is one of my free agent interviews where I ask very deserving free agents questions about the players themselves and about what a team would get in these players. All of these players should get picked up by NFL and CFL teams and get a shot at being a career football player. So I hope you all read this interview and follow Chris’ journey on Twitter @Lilchris47_

Power clean because it helps build power and I feel like its a very important lift.

2.Rank focus,footwork and skill based on what is most important to you as a player and explain why?

You won’t believe it, because the things I go through and get through are unbelievable to some people.
