Richard D'Attoria V (born January 9, 2005) is an American football safety for the Philadelphia Liberty of the National Simulation Football League (NSFL). He played college football for Northwestern University and was drafted 15th overall to the Portland Pythons of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL). He played S14 with the eventual Ultimini-winning Pythons, earning a Pro Bowl nod, before being drafted 9th overall to the Liberty.

Early years

D'Attoria V was born to two immigrant parents and, as the oldest of three children, was responsible for caretaking in his spare time. His family straddled the poverty line, and he tutored children to earn money for dinner. As he got older, his family situation leveled out, letting him focus more on his academic responsibilities.

College career

Accepted to Northwestern on an academic scholarship, Richard D'Attoria joined the team as a walk-on. In his freshman year in 2026, he only played in one game, recording a single tackle. He redshirted the following year, working on an computer science degree. In his sophomore year, he played in all 14 games and even started 3 towards the end of the year. Against Ohio State in Week 12, he notched his first career sack. In NU's bowl game, he recorded 8 tackles and his first interception, earning him the starting SS job for his junior year. D'Attoria started the year slow, totaling just 7 tackles over the first three games, but in Week 4 against Illinois, he exploded on to the scene with 11 tackles and 3 TFLs, and in Week 12 he racked up 7 tackles, a sack, and two interceptions, earning him Big 10 defensive player of the week honors. He finished the season with 74 tackles, 11 TFLs, 8 sacks, 11 PDs, and 5 picks. Despite suspicion that he might be picked in the upcoming DSFL draft, he returned to school for his senior year in which he exploded on to the scene immediately. He switched between FS and SS with great results. He recorded 3 sacks in the first game of the season, and set a school record with 4 picks in the Week 11 game. After a Week 14 win in which D'Attoria V tallied 9 tackles with a TFL and a PD, he declared for the DSFL draft, initially projected as a high pick. He finished his senior season with 121 tackles, 10 TFLs, 6 sacks, 22 PDs, and a whopping 14 INTs.

Professional career statistics

==2030-2032: Career Beginnings D'Attoria V was called up to the NSFL in his rookie season, but with superstars Lennox Garnett and Bucky Barnes on the team, he was unable to earn a starting spot at the safety position. D'Attoria V played the majority of the season at the cornerback position, and in a 30-17 Week 2 win over the New Orleans Second Line, he recorded his first multi-pass deflection game, then recorded two more in the next two games. D'Attoria V's first career interception came in a 38-28 win against the Yellowknife Wraiths, and just two weeks later, he received his first ever Defensive Player of the Game honors for a 5-tackle performance with a sack and an interception in a Week 9 20-0 shutout of the San Jose Sabercats. D'Attoria V went on to win two more such awards before the conclusion of the season. In the Liberty's only playoff game, a 34-13 blowout loss to the Baltimore Hawks, D'Attoria V led the team in tackles, his first time doing so, but failed to record any other statistic.
