The Jets have signed fullback Tony Richardson to a 1-year deal.  The 36-year old Richardson will give the Jets a real fullback who is a good blocker to lead the way for Thomas Jones and Leon Washington in 2008.  He played in 14 games for the Vikings last season and he carried the ball 7 times for 13 yards (1.9 ypc).  He also caught 11 passes for 89 yards (8.1 avg).  He has now played in 186 games in his NFL career and he has carried the ball 407 times for 1,601 yards (3.9 ypc) with 15 TD runs.  He also has caught 201 passes for 1,498 yards (7.5 avg) with 9 TD grabs.  This was a good move for the Jets who are trying to improve their running game this off-season.
