Calvin Ridley - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

One grab in Week 8 loss Ridley caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals.

Impact Ridley has been a total non-factor all season and remains likely to be dealt ahead of next week's trade deadline, if there's a team willing to take on the remainder of his $5.49 million salary for this season. He doesn't appear to have much left in the tank at 31 years old.

Good to go vs. Cincinnati Ridley (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Ridley has been officially cleared to return from a one-game absence due to a hip injury. The veteran wide receiver has only five catches on 10 targets for 81 yards through six regular-season games, but he has the opportunity Sunday to operate in an expanded role due to the absence of rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate (shoulder).

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to play in Week 8 Ridley (hip) is in line to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact After sitting out in Week 7 due to a hip injury, Ridley kicked off Week 8 prep with back-to-back limited sessions before upgrading to full Friday and entering the weekend listed as questionable. Assuming he's deemed active about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll be working in a Titans receiving corps without top WR Carnell Tate (shoulder) for the first time this season.

NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Week 8 Ridley (hip) is officially questionable for Sunday's matchup against Cincinnati.

Impact Ridley didn't play last week due to a hip injury, but he was able to upgrade to full practice participation this Friday. Although Tennessee has deemed him questionable to suit up against the Bengals, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports that the veteran wideout is set to play. Ridley's expected return is especially timely given that No. 1 wideout Carnell Tate (shoulder) has been ruled out.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Remains limited at practice Ridley (hip) was limited at practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact The same applies applies to Wednesday's session, giving the wideout one more chance to up his participation level ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. So far this season, Ridley has recorded just five catches on 10 targets for 81 yards in six games, a pace that has kept him off the fantasy radar thus far.

Bears Land Jeffery Simmons: Why Execs Love Deal For Chicago; Who Will Titans Trade Next?

Limited in Wednesday's session Ridley (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Ridley sat out the Titans' final two practices of Week 7 before sitting out an eventual 27-24 loss to the Browns on Sunday, but he was able to take a step forward in terms of activity for the start of Week 8 prep. If the veteran receiver is able to upgrade to full participation Thursday and/or Friday, he should be in line to suit up this weekend versus the Bengals. Before sitting out against the Browns, Ridley had put together a 5-81-0 receiving line on 10 targets through the Titans' first six games.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Ridley (hip) returned to practice Wednesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ridley was inactive for this past Sunday's game against the Browns, but the wideout's presence at practice Wednesday offers hope that he may be available Sunday against the Bengals. The Titans' upcoming practice report will reveal Ridley's official participation level in his return to the practice field.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Inactive in Week 7 Ridley (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact Ridley opened Week 7 prep with a limited session Wednesday due to a hip injury, but he followed it up with back-to-back DNPs, leaving him questionable ahead of the weekend. With inactive status confirmed Sunday, Ridley will cede his role to some combination of Wan'Dale Robinson, Elic Ayomanor, Chimere Dike and K.J. Osborn behind top WR Carnell Tate. Ridley's next chance for game action is Sunday, Nov. 1, at Cincinnati.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Listed questionable for Sunday Ridley (hip) will not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ridley and Elic Ayomanor have been splitting WR snaps alongside No. 1 receiver Carnell Tate and slot man Wan'Dale Robinson. If Ridley were to miss Sunday's game, Ayomanor presumably would take on more playing time.

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Ridley is trending in the wrong direction, as he was unable to practice Thursday after being listed as limited Wednesday. Even if Ridley recovers in time to face the Browns on Sunday, he remains a non-factor for fantasy purposes, having caught only five passes through six games while dropping to fourth on Tennessee's wide receiver depth chart.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Limited practice Wednesday Ridley (hip) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact The veteran is dealing with a hip issue but was able to get some work in during the first practice session of the week. Ridley's status will come into focus in the coming days before the Titans release their final injury report ahead of the Week 7 game against the Browns.

NFL Trade Deadline: Who Are 10 Of The Top Players That Could Be Available?

Held without catch again Ridley failed to haul in either of his two targets during the Titans' 26-20 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Impact Tennessee captured its first win of the season, although most of the credit can go to the defense and special teams, seeing as Cam Ward passed for only 102 yards (with 70 of those yards going to rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate). It was the third time in six games that Ridley failed to log a catch, and the veteran wideout has only five catches on 10 targets for 81 yards this season. He carries very little upside heading into a Week 7 home tilt against the Browns on Oct. 25.

OCTOBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Two snags in loss Ridley caught two of three targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans.

Impact Ridley was limited to two or fewer catches for the fifth straight game to open the regular season, and he has yet to exceed 35 receiving yards in a contest this year. The wide receiver has reeled in five of eight targets for 81 yards over five contests this season, and he'll continue to have a rather low floor from a fantasy perspective in Week 6 against the Colts.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Just one catch in Week 4 loss Ridley caught one pass on two targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 24-18 loss to the Ravens.

Impact Ridley and the rest of the Titans pass catchers took a back seat to rookie wide receiver Carnell Tate, who turned 12 of his targets from Cam Ward into nine catches for 145 yards. Ridley was on the field for 30 of Tennessee's 64 offensive snaps (46.9 percent), which was fewer than Tate (54), Wan'Dale Robinson (43) and Elic Ayomanor (40). Ridley is off to a slow start to the 2026 season, accumulating only three catches (on five targets) for 48 yards through four games. The Titans head home for Week 5 against the Texans, whose secondary was torched by CeeDee Lamb in a Week 4 loss to the Cowboys.

Logs lesser role in Week 3 loss Ridley didn't catch his only target Sunday in a loss to the Giants.

Impact For the first time this season, Ridley was not among the Titans' top three wideouts in terms of offensive snaps. Carnell Tate (53 snaps) led the WR corps in that category, with Elic Ayomanor (48 snaps) and Wan'Dale Robinson (38 snaps) also both ahead of Ridley (20 snaps). That could be an indication that Tennessee is turning toward the younger Ayomanor over the veteran Ridley, who has caught just two passes for 35 yards through three contests on the campaign.

Catches first passes of 2026 Ridley caught both of his targets for 35 yards during the Titans' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Impact Ridley didn't see a target from Cam Ward during the Titans' Week 1 loss to the Jets. The veteran wide receiver finally got involved offensively with catches of 25 and 10 yards in the third quarter as part of a 12-play, 69-yard drive that ended with a one-yard touchdown scramble by Ward. Ridley was listed as a starter alongside Carnell Tate and Elic Ayomanor, and Ridley's 33 snaps on offense were second-most among Titans wide receivers behind Tate (40). Up next for Ridley and the Titans is a Week 3 road tilt against the Giants.

Zero targets in Week 1 loss Ridley played 32 offensive snaps and did not show up in the box score otherwise during the Titans' 23-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Impact Ridley had the third-most snaps among Titans wide receivers behind Carnell Tate (44) and Wan'Dale Robinson (41), though Ridley didn't end up seeing a single target from quarterback Cam Ward during Sunday's loss. Ridley restructured his contract in mid-March after playing in only seven regular-season games in 2025, but it looks like the veteran wide receiver might be an afterthought in the Titans' offense. He'll look for better results in Tennessee's Week 2 clash against Philadelphia on Sept. 20.
