LOS ANGELES—Mike Richards is out as an executive producer of “Jeopardy!”, days after he exited as the quiz show’s newly appointed host because of past comments.

Richards is also no longer an executive producer of “Wheel of Fortune,” according to a memo to staff that was confirmed by Sony Pictures Television, which produces both of the shows.
