He appeared in the 2014 Super League Grand Final as a substitute in Saints' 14–6 win against Wigan. During the 2017 season, Richards was sent to Kingstone Press Championship side the Sheffield Eagles as part of a Dual registration deal with Saints. Here, he played just three games before returning.
