A sample of FRII radio sources in rich clusters of galaxies, both at high (z\sim0.5) and low (z\sim0) redshift, has been constructed to study the effect of environment on radio sources. Comparisons are made between the properties of FRII sources in cluster and non-cluster environments, and between X-ray clusters with and without FRII sources. The principal results are the following: 1. Most low-redshift FRII sources in clusters appear to be similar to FRII sources in group or field environments in terms of radio power, optical properties of the host galaxy, and nonthermal pressure of the radio bridge. Most low-redshift clusters with FRII sources tend to lie at the lower end of cluster X-ray luminosity distribution, some having L_x comparable to FRII sources in non-cluster environments. 2. High-redshift FRII sources are all quite similar to each other irrespective of their environments. The nonthermal pressures of their radio bridges appear to be similar to those of low-redshift FRII's. 3. The nonthermal pressures of the bridges of FRII sources appear to be similar to the thermal pressures of the ICM around them. This result would allow FRII sources to be used as probes of their gaseous environments. The current data imply that the evolution in the clustering strength around FRII sources toward high-redshift is likely to be closely linked to an evolution of the state of the intracluster medium
