Quarterback Known as “AR-15” Changes Nickname, Citing Mass Shootings

Anthony Richardson is a Heisman trophy prospect from the University of Florida. This 6’4″, 230 pound athlete recently had the nickname “AR-15” as those are his initials and his numbers. Recently, he asked for everyone to refer him as “AR” to respect the ones that had lost their lives in the recent shootings. He feels that he doesn’t want to be known as the guy with the firearm as a nickname.
