2025 Position Group Preview – Defensive Backs
12 of the 16 Spiders are in their redshirt freshman or true freshman season. A ridiculously young position group facing plenty of changes due to the portal. We’ll need a few newer Spiders to step up to maintain the progress from 2024.

2025 Position Group Preview – Tight ends

2025 Position Group Preview – Quarterbacks
Camp officially opens for the 2025 Richmond Spiders in one week. No better way to get the preseason started than with the quarterbacks preview, led by senior captain Kyle Wickersham.

2024 Position Group Preview – Linebackers

2024 Position Group Preview – Specialists
An all around solid special teams season by the Spiders in 2023 leads to a positive outlook in 2024. A solid mix of veteran players, transfers, and potentially a freshman that could play a role for Richmond this year.

2024 Position Group Preview – Offensive Line
Gone is two-time 1st team All-CAA selection Ryan Coll, however the Spiders still have plenty of experience up front. Albany gave this group a taste of what the most physical teams in the country can do, and I expect these guys to respond to that in 2024.
