Richards was drafted in the second round of the 2007 MLS SuperDraft by New York Red Bulls, establishing himself as the first team right winger for the club. On 5 May 2007, Richards scored his first MLS regular season goal in a 3–3 tie at Real Salt Lake. He concluded his first MLS season appearing in 28 matches, including 27 starts, in which he managed two goals and six assists. His assist total was second on the club and led all league rookies. At the conclusion of the season Richards was selected as one of three nominees for league rookie of the year honours.

Richards appeared in 23 MLS regular season matches in 2008, scoring 3 goals and recording 6 assists. In the 2008 MLS Cup Playoffs, Richards helped the Red Bulls to an upset over defending Champion Houston Dynamo (4-1 on aggregate).

He was given a second chance, this time in a Championship league game against Huddersfield, coming on after 15 minutes for the injured Dean Marney. Richards again struggled to acclimatise to the pace of the game, and was himself substituted after an hour.[11] This would be his last appearance in a Burnley shirt, and he was sent out on loan shortly after.

Upon his return from his loan spell, Richards was released from his Burnley contract so that he could permanently join Norwegian side FK Bodø/Glimt.[12]

After struggling to earn a starting place with Burnley, Richards was sent on loan to Norwegian 1. divisjon club Bodø/Glimt on 4 April 2013.[13] He played in 14 league games and scored 2 goals before his loan period ended, and he returned to his parent club. In July 2013 Richards signed a permanent contract to finish out the season.[12] He helped the club in capturing the 2013 Adeccoligaen and gain promotion to the top flight. On 13 April 2014 Richards helped Bodø/Glimt record their first victory of the Tippeligaen season, scoring the equalizer in a 4-2 come from behind win over Sogndal.[14] He made a total of 55 official appearances for Bodø/Glimt, scoring ten goals.

On 10 July 2015, the Red Bulls announced that Richards would be loaned out to NASL side Indy Eleven for the remainder of the season.[17]

Richards debuted with the Jamaica national team in 2002 at the age of 18, and while he was still at Clemson returned to the Jamaica national team, playing in a 1-1 friendly tie against the United States.
