Kyle Trask knows something about the kind of offense Dan Mullen can assemble with wide-ranging talent at the quarterback position.

So Trask, now playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, expects big things from backup QB Anthony Richardson as Mullen weighs how to use him and Emory Jones.

“He’s a supersmart coach,” Trask told the Orlando Sentinel. “He’s going to figure out the best possible way for this team to win, whatever that may be.”

Richardson has shown off plenty of athleticism, including a backflip in the pregame warmups before Florida played Alabama.

“I always like to describe him he’s like the LeBron James of football,” Trask said. “I know he can do all these crazy dunks. I think he won the dunk competition his first semester on campus.

“You could just see see how athletic he is.”
