Calvin Ridley A Shaky WR2 In Revenge Game Vs. Falcons

Calvin Ridley A Shaky WR2 In Revenge Game Vs. Falcons

one year ago

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley heads into a revenge matchup against the Atlanta Falcons this week in London. Ridley was infamously suspended for a year (Gambling) as a member of the Falcons and then traded to Jacksonville in 2022. The Alabama product started the year hot but has cooled off significantly in the past two weeks, as he now leads the NFL with 10 targets or more in drops. Ridley has caught five of 15 targets in this time span, for only 72 yards. He is quickly slipping as a trusted fantasy asset in the struggling Jags offense, and one more bad performance could relegate him to bench duty for fantasy managers. Still, Ridley is still seeing enough volume to be a solid fantasy starter especially with WR Zay Jones out another week, so better days are ahead for the 28-year-old. He projects as a low-end WR2 against his former team.
