2024 Fantasy Outlook
Ridley came back from his year-and-a-half absence and proved he can still play, though his lone season with the Jaguars wasn't necessarily a success. He scored eight TDs and had a handful of close-call misses in the end zone, but teammate Christian Kirk was otherwise more productive before suffering a season-ending injury Week 13, and Ridley barely snuck over 1,000 yards in 17 games while finishing with a career-low 55.9 percent catch rate. The Titans, led by new coach Brian Callahan, apparently believe the 2018 first-round pick can get back toward his 1,374-yard peak from 2020 in Atlanta, having signed Ridley to a four-year, $92 million contract with 51 percent of the money guaranteed at signing. There were certainly signs of the old Ridley last year, though his volume was disappointing when Kirk was healthy (6.9 targets per game) and his efficiency then plummeted from 8.7 YPT to 5.9 when he got far more volume (10.0 targets) in Kirk's absence the final six games. His comments after signing suggest Ridley expects to move around the formation more often this year, which could be especially helpful given that he's thin (6-1, 190) and managed just 5.9 YPT against press coverage last year. On the other hand, a move to Tennessee means uncertainty at QB with second-year pro Will Levis and major target competition from WRs DeAndre Hopkins and Tyler Boyd. It's not clear a 29-year-old Ridley is better than a 32-year-old Hopkins, though the latter's presence should at least free up the former to focus on his strengths and take fewer reps against top cornerbacks using press coverage.

RANKS
Comes up empty on eight targets
Ridley failed to come up with any of his eight targets and rushed once for nine yards in the Titans' 20-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Ridley logged a team-high target total but somehow failed to come up with any of the passes thrown his way. The veteran is mired in a forgettable three-game stretch during which he's posted a combined 2-14 line on 14 targets, and Will Levis' failure to develop any consistent rapport with the valued offseason addition could help spur a quarterback change to Mason Rudolph ahead of a Week 7 road matchup against the Bills.

2018
Last seen in October 2021, Ridley has a few things working in his favor as he tries to rebound from some mental health struggles and a year-long gambling suspension. A change of scenery could help, especially when his new home features pass-loving coach Doug Pederson and talented young quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The Jags also have target competition in the form of WRs Christian Kirk, Zay Jones and TE Evan Engram, but none has shown anywhere near the type of talent Ridley displayed in 2020 when he put up 1,374 yards and nine TDs in 15 games for the Falcons. An offense that found 202 combined targets last season for Zay Jones and Marvin Jones (now in Detroit) shouldn't have any trouble getting Ridley well into triple digits if he's still the same player from 2020 and early 2021. Of course, that's no guarantee, as results have been mixed with players who have long layoffs from the game, even those in their physical primes (Ridley turns 29 in December).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
NFL's highest air yard share
Ridley has accounted for a league-high 60.2-percent share of Tennessee's air yards through two weeks, per Next Gen Stats.
ANALYSIS
Ridley has been the only wide receiver consistently connecting with quarterback Will Levis downfield for the Titans, though perhaps DeAndre Hopkins will start to pick up a greater share of air yards now that Hopkins is further removed from the knee injury that bothered him heading into the season. Ridley has led the Titans in receiving yards in each of his first two games with the team, and he also recorded two of the six fastest speeds by a player in Week 2, reaching 20.93 and 20.8 miles per hour.
