Richardson Quits Falcon Pro Team
JOHNSON CITY TENN AP Atlanta Falcons officials said Monday defensive safety Jerry Richardson quit the NFL team after his demand for a three game guarantee for the 1968 season was rejected by Coach Nord Hecker. Richardson, a four year man, needed activation for at least three games to be eligible for NFL pension. He asked for a trade or release, saying he could not wait until September to see other teams. He cited a business opportunity too good to resist. The Jets opened training camp as Joe Namath tested his surgically repaired left knee.
