FILE - In this Sept. 9, 2018, file photo, Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson makes a move during the team's NFL football game against the Arizona Cardinals in Glendale, Ariz. The Redskins have released cornerback Josh Norman and wide receiver Richardson. Norman struggled to live up to the $75 million, five-year contract he signed in 2016 after an All-Pro season in Carolina. He was let go with one year left on that deal. Norman's release and $12.5 million salary-cap savings could pave the way for Washington to give cornerback Quinton Dunbar a raise. Richardson's release doesn't save as much.
