Decamerion Richardson is an American football player who has played for the last 4 years for the Mississippi State Bulldogs football team. Richardson plays in the secondary as a cornerback. Born in Cullen, Louisiana, Richards enrolled into Bossier High School in Bossier City, Louisiana where he was a three-star prospect according to scouting websites such as 247Sports, ESPN, and Rivals,
In 2020, Richardson joined Mississippi State as a true freshman, appearing in seven games in a limited amount of time on the field, thus resulting in no stats for the season. In 2021, his 13 total tackles came from 13 game appearances but he still had limited game time. However, he had a breakthrough year in 2022 as a junior, finally earning the starting role and finishing the season with 85 tackles. He continued a similar trajectory in his senior year in 2023.
Looking at his scouting profile, the first thing that stands out is his physical presence. With a height of 6 feet 2 inches, he will have most of the wideouts in the NFL covered in that department of the game. He also has good overall speed, route understanding, and ball-tracking abilities.
However, the main drawback of his game is his lack of coverage ability. His change of direction speed is also a bit of a bother while his tackling is not what it should be at this level of the sport. Furthermore, his reactiveness and instincts are on the slower side especially when the play is developing back to his side of the field.
