Calvin Ridley's return for the Titans ends abruptly with season-ending broken leg

Tennessee interim coach Mike McCoy said Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley will miss the rest of the season after breaking his right leg Sunday in a loss to the Texans

Limited to one catch Jefferson recorded one catch on four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Jefferson maintained a significant role in the Tennessee offense with Calvin Ridley (hamstring) sidelined. He's managed at least four targets in four straight games, though Jefferson has managed only one reception in each of his last two contests. He should continue to get opportunities so long as Ridley is sidelined, but Jefferson's production will be sporadic at best.

Can't connect with Ward Jefferson recorded one reception on eight targets for six yards in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Colts.

Impact Jefferson was on the field for 78 percent of offensive snaps with Calvin Ridley (hamstring) sidelined again. He managed to match Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike in targets, but Jefferson was extremely inefficient with that opportunity. Jefferson should continue to see an expanded role so long as Ridley is sidelined, but his fantasy value still remains very limited.

Impact Jefferson upgraded to full practice participation Friday after a pair of limited sessions to gain clearance. He took on a larger role after Ridley got hurt in the Week 6 loss to the Raiders, as Jefferson finished with four catches for 75 yards. Jefferson will likely start on the outside opposite Elic Ayomanor against a Patriots secondary that's allowing 146 receiving yards per game to wide receivers.

Stays limited Thursday Jefferson (ankle) remained limited in practice Thursday.

Impact Just like Wednesday, Jefferson practiced in limited fashion while Calvin Ridley (hamstring) didn't participate in practice. With Ridley trending toward sitting out Sunday against the Patriots, Jefferson has a nice opportunity to take on a larger role, assuming the latter can play through his own injury concerns. Jefferson compiled four catches for 75 yards after Ridley exited Tennessee's Week 6 loss to the Raiders. Prior to that game, Jefferson had 24 receiving yards all season.

Logs limited practice Jefferson (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact With Calvin Ridley not practicing Wednesday, Jefferson's status is of added import ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots. Ridley was forced out of the Titans' Week 6 loss to the Raiders with a hamstring injury after logging just six snaps, which led to Jefferson recording a season-high 74 percent snaps share en route to catching four of his six targets for 75 yards.

Season-best numbers in loss Jefferson secured four of six targets for 75 yards during Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Raiders.

Impact Jefferson recorded more offensive yardage in his Week 6 breakout than during the prior five games of the year combined, playing a season-high 75 percent of offensive snaps. His increased involvement came as the result of Calvin Ridley (hamstring) being forced off the field due to injury early in the first quarter. If Ridley is limited or unable to play Week 7 versus the Patriots then Jefferson, rookie fourth-rounder wideout Elic Ayomanor and will tight end Chig Okonkwo will be stand to benefit from sharp upticks in target share.

Questionable to face LV Jefferson (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice but is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Jefferson appeared to pick up an ankle injury during the Titans' Week 5 win over the Cardinals. He steadily upgraded his practice participation after sitting out of Wednesday's session, but his official status for Sunday's contest may not be known until the Titans announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes prior to the 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. With Bryce Oliver (knee) already ruled out, the Titans could elevate Mason Kinsey, James Proche or undrafted rookie Xavier Restrepo from the practice squad to the active roster if Jefferson is unable to play.

Limited practice Thursday Jefferson (ankle) practiced in limited fashion Thursday.

Impact Jefferson was unable to practice in any capacity Wednesday, so his activity Thursday was a step in the right direction. There should be a clearer picture of his potential availability for a Week 6 matchup against Las Vegas on Friday, depending on whether he can avoid an injury designation.
