Top Demani Richardson News

  • Demani Richardson: Cut by Carolina

    The Panthers waived Richardson on Tuesday.

    Carolina made a series of roster moves Tuesday ahead of Saturday afternoon's wild-card matchup with the Rams. Richardson appeared in 13 games for the Panthers during the regular season, making one start, and logged seven tackles (three solo) and one fumble recovery.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Posts solid rookie season

    Richardson accumulated 51 total tackles and two passes defended, including one interception, over 14 games in 2024.

    Richardson was inactive for the Panthers' first three games but appeared in every other contest this season, playing an integral role on either special teams or defense. He showed flashes of brilliance over his five starts in 2024, recording double-digit tackles in three of those outings. The undrafted rookie from Texas A&M tallied 48 of his total stops, along with both of his passes defended, during those five starts. With Jordan Fuller and Xavier Woods set to hit unrestricted free agency and Carolina focused on continuing its rebuild, Richardson will likely compete for a starting role on the Panthers' defense this offseason.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Nine tackles against Tampa Bay

    Richardson tallied nine tackles (six solo) during Carolina's 48-14 loss to Tampa Bay on Sunday.

    Richardson made his third start of the season Sunday due to Jordan Fuller (coach's decision) being sidelined. Richardson played all 74 defensive snaps and finished as the Panthers' fourth-leading tackler behind Chandler Wooten (14), Xavier Woods (12) and Jacoby Windmon (10). It appears Carolina wants to see what it has in Richardson, and the undrafted rookie out of Texas A&M could start over Fuller in the regular-season finale against Atlanta next Sunday.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Starting in Week 16

    Richardson will start at strong safety over Jordan Fuller (coach's decision) for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Richardson will make his third start of the regular season Sunday. He started at safety in Week 8 and 9, and across those two games he accumulated 23 tackles (15 solo) and one pass defense. Richardson and the Panthers' secondary will have their hands full against quarterback Kyler Murray and pass catchers Marvin Harrison, Michael Wilson and Trey McBride.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Another monster performance Sunday

    Richardson recorded 12 total tackles (eight solo) and defended one pass in Sunday's 23-22 win over the Saints.

    The undrafted rookie from Texas A&M has really impressed in his first two starts in the NFL, racking up 23 total tackles and one pass defended. He played every defensive snap for Carolina in Week 9 after being on the field for all but one in Week 8, suggesting he may have secured the team's top strong safety position. While Nick Scott (hamstring) and Jordan Fuller (hamstring) have been sidelined these past two weeks, it'll be tough for Carolina to bench Richardson after his recent performances.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Double-digit stops in Week 8

    Richardson recorded 11 total tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Broncos.

    Richardson had played zero defensive snaps while being active for four of the Panthers' seven games before Week 8. The Texas A&M product then played all 72 of Carolina's defensive snaps in Sunday's loss and was the team's leading tackler. Carolina is dealing with injuries to Jammie Robinson (knee), Nick Scott (hamstring) and Jordan Fuller (hamstring) at the moment; however, Richardson will likely continue to see plenty of work with the Panthers' first-team defense if he continues performing as he did Sunday.

  • Panthers' Demani Richardson: Nabs pick vs. Jets

    Richardson logged three total tackles and one interception during Saturday's 15-12 preseason loss to the Jets.

    The 23-year-old safety out of Texas A&M was one of Carolina's few bright spots, picking off Adrian Martinez in the third quarter of Saturday's preseason loss. Richardson could find himself on Carolina's practice squad or even make the team's 53-man roster if he continues to play well for the remainder of the preseason.
