During his rookie season, Marshall played in portions of all 16 games. Marshall spent the first part of his career in the nickelback role, playing behind Chris Gamble and Ken Lucas. After the 2008 playoff season, Ken Lucas was released from the team, thus promoting Richard Marshall to the starting lineup.
The NFL Network voted a play by Marshall as the "Number 1 play of the 2008 pre-season". The play involved Marshall intercepting a fake field goal flick from the holder to the kicker and running it back for a touchdown.
Marshall signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Arizona Cardinals on July 30, 2011.[1]
Marshall attended Alain Leroy Locke Senior High School in Los Angeles, California and won All-League and All-CIF honors.
