Huddle Up: Ridley will turn 32 at the end of this upcoming season, but in terms of per-target metrics, it was his worst as a pro. Posting career lows in receptions per game (2.4) and yards per game (43.3), Ridley may be mixing into more of a committee at wide receiver in 2026 with second-year pros Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike, plus free-agent signee Wan'Dale Robinson now in Tennessee. Ridley could be a late-round dart throw that pays off if the Titans give him veteran deference, but leaving the name value of Ridley for another fantasy drafter in 2026 may be the wisest move.

Huddle Up: Ridley struggled with injuries this season and was limited to seven games and 303 receiving yards. Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation during the offseason because there is a chance that the Titans let him go. He should be involved in a team's passing game next season but may no longer be a weekly starting option.

Huddle Up: 2025 was not kind to Calvin Ridley due to his dealing with injuries. That being said, he did show flashes and could be a part of a starting wide receiver corps still.

Huddle Up: It was a lost season for Ridley, who ended up with a career-low 17 receptions on just 36 targets, posting 303 yards with no touchdowns, also a new career low. He did average 17.8 yards per reception, which, oddly enough, was the best average of his career. After three 1,000-yard NFL seasons, and four years with seven or more NFL scores, Ridley is at a crossroads. He is 30 years old, but he has just 90 NFL games under his belt across seven NFL seasons. There is tread left on the tires, but it remains to be seen if he can re-kindle that earlier career production when he finally gets healthy. We'll see in 2026, and he'll be worth a late-round flier on draft day. As far as right now, rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike are the best fantasy options at receiver in Nashville, but both left the Week 11 game with injuries of their own. If one or both cannot play, cast an eye to Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey, the two healthy receivers on the 53-man roster. Xavier Restrepo, who played with Cam Ward at Miami, and who shared some nice rapport in training camp and the preseason, could also come up from the practice squad to surprise.

Huddle Up: Van Jefferson, Mason Kinsey and Elic Ayomanor are all candidates for more targets with Ridley unavailable. Ayomanor may have the most value among the three, but none of them are strong fantasy options.

Huddle Up: Ridley just returned from injury but is not dealing with a new injury. Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see how long he may be sidelined. Van Jefferson and Elic Ayomanor will see more work if Ridley misses time but are not starting options in most leagues.

Huddle Up: Ridley just returned from injury, and now he is sidelined again. The severity of the injury is not yet known, but he has had a tough time staying healthy, and fantasy owners might not want to trust him the rest of the way.

Huddle Up: Ridley had been listed as questionable on the injury report after being a limited participant in all three of Tennessee's practice sessions during the week. He has eclipsed the 50-yard mark in just two of the six games he's played in this season and will be seeing his first action since Week 6, making him a risky flex option for deeper fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Ridley will return after a three-game absence, but he will face a tough test in the Houston secondary. He managed just two catches for 30 yards in his first meeting with the Texans, and Ridley has been held to 30 yards or less in four of his six games overall. Fantasy owners may want to wait a week before inserting Ridley back into their lineups.
