09/05/2010 - Florham Park, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Jets have released veteran fullback Tony Richardson.

He had re-signed with the team in March after blocking last season for the NFL's top rushing offense, which was led by veteran Thomas Jones and rookie Shonn Greene.

Used almost exclusively as a blocker, Richardson had just 17 rushing attempts in his two seasons with the Jets. The three-time Pro Bowl selection previously played two seasons for Minnesota following a long-term assignment clearing paths for Kansas City backs.

Richardson broke into the league with the Chiefs in 1995 and had the most prolific season of his career with them in 2000, when he carried 147 times for 697 yards and caught 58 passes for 468 yards, career-highs in each category.

During his 15 seasons, the Auburn product has toted 424 times for 1,714 yards and 15 touchdowns, and hauled in 205 passes for 1,512 yards and nine scores.

The Jets also released wide receiver David Clowney and running back Chauncey Washington on Sunday while claiming offensive lineman Patrick Brown, defensive lineman Marcus Dixon and wide receiver Patrick Turner, who played with quarterback Mark Sanchez at USC, on waivers.
