TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. New England Patriots

Calvin Ridley had his breakout party last week against the Lions, catching 10 passes for 143 yards. He entered the game with 12 total catches for the season. Not having DeAndre Hopkins almost forces Mason Rudolph or Will Levis to feed the ball to Ridley. That's a good sign for his fantasy value. He gets the Patriots this week who still are allowing the 10th-most passing yards per game at 223.5. Ridley is back up as a WR2 this week.

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Detroit Lions

By default, Calvin Ridley is back to being the WR1 in Tennessee now that DeAndre Hopkins is in Kansas City. Of course, that's not saying much given the quarterback struggles in Tennessee, whether it's Will Levis or Mason Rudolph. Ridley is also dealing with a foot injury. Ridley hasn't reached 50 yards in a game since Week 2 and has just five total catches in his last three games, including the shutout in Week 6. Ridley is at least back to Flex consideration given he is the top receiver for Rudolph and the Lions have been up and down against the pass, so Ridley may steal a score Sunday.

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Indianapolis Colts

Calvin Ridley went into the bye week on a hushed note. He had just two catches for 14 yards the two games before the bye. If there's a week to bounce back, it's this week as Ridley faces a Colts pass defense that ranks 29th in passing yards allowed. The quarterback position is a question mark. Ridley is a low-end WR3.

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Miami Dolphins

One catch, nine years. That was Calvin Ridley's stat line in Week 3 against the Packers. Ridley is being held back by the major struggles for quarterback Will Levis. But Levis still needs someone to throw to and Ridley is his main target. Then there's this, per NFL Next Gen Stats, Ridley is accounting for 48% of the Titans' air yards this season. Ridley is a flex play this week.

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Green Bay Packers

Calvin Ridley had a solid day last week against the Jets with four catches for 77 yards (including a highlight catch against two defenders) and a touchdown. Three of those catches came against Jets CB Sauce Gardner. He's the top option in Tennessee, but his ceiling will be limited due to the quarterback situation. Ridley is still flex-worthy against a Packers defense that has been a favorable matchup for opposing fantasy wide receivers through two weeks (No. 23-hardest in our matchup rankings).

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. New York Jets

Calvin Ridley caught three of his seven targets for 50 yards in his Titans debut. Most of that can be attributed to the struggles of QB Will Levis. It doesn't get any easier this week for Ridley as he faces the trio of Sauce Gardner, DJ Reed and Michael Carter, though Carter did hurt his ankle Monday night. Consider Ridley a low-end WR3 for this week.

TEN WR Calvin Ridley - 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Calvin Ridley surprised everyone when he left the Jaguars to join the Titans in free agency. He joins a Titans team that now has Brian Callahan as their head coach, the former offensive coordinator of the Bengals. As our John Paulsen notes, the Bengals were second in pass rate over expectation in each of the last two seasons. With the possibility of the Titans throwing the ball more, Ridley should be fed plenty of target opportunities from quarterback Will Levis.

Fantasy Downside

Ridley was up and down in his first season back in action and his lone season in Jacksonville. Ridley had nine games with 40 yards or fewer and was 44th (out of 81) in yards per route run and 42nd in first downs per route run. Could Callahan and Levis increase those numbers? We'll find out.

2024 Bottom Line

Ridley got big money to come to Music City. Will he be able to score some tunes for the Titans' offense? He has hopefully shaken off the rust from last season. He'll have to compete with DeAndre Hopkins and Tyler Boyd for targets while hoping the new-look offensive line will keep Levis upright. Ridley enters the season as a fantasy WR3.
