Calvin Ridley
WR - Tennessee Titans
2024 Outlook
Calvin Ridley is signing a four-year, $92 million deal with $50 million fully guaranteed with the Titans.
Fantasy Impact
In his first year back from suspension last season, Ridley caught 76 passes for 1,016 yards with eight touchdowns last season in Jacksonville. He remains in the AFC South and will join DeAndre Hopkins on the Titans with Will Levis looking to take a step forward next season.
The Patriots and Jaguars are both still hopeful to sign free agent WR Calvin Ridley.
Fantasy Impact
Ridley could be waiting for the draft pick the Jaguars owe the Falcons in their trade to become a third-rounder instead of a second-round pick. The Patriots are also in need of a true No.1 WR and could offer Ridley a big payday. Ridley’s status should become clear now that league year has begun and he is officially a free agent.
Free agent WR Calvin Ridley prefers to return to Jacksonville despite a strong push by New England.
Fantasy Impact
Ridley would provide the Patriots with a true No. 1 wide receiver, but the free agent is looking towards a potential reunion with the Jaguars. Even with the signing of Gabe Davis in free agency, Ridley should see a consistent target share if he returns to Jacksonville.
Free agent WR Calvin Ridley is expected to draw interest from the Jaguars, Patriots, Titans, and Panthers.
Fantasy Impact
The 29-year-old veteran tallied 1,016 receiving yards and eight touchdowns on 76 receptions with Jacksonville last season. With Mike Evans already off the board for wide receiver needy teams, Ridley should receive a few significant contract offers.
Calvin Ridley is reportedly going to draw strong interest from the Patriots when free agency opens this week.
Fantasy Impact
Ridley had an inconsistent first season with the Jaguars but is apparently a major target of the WR-needy Pats when free agency kicks off. For what it's worth, Jacksonville quarterback Trevor Lawrence told reporters on Saturday that he would like to have Ridley back. New England is likely to upgrade the QB position either in free agency or in the NFL draft, but either way it is hard to get too excited about Ridley if he ultimately lands there.
