Calvin Ridley suffered a season-ending broken fibula in today’s Tennessee Titans loss to the Houston Texans. The injury will require surgery, according to Paul Kuharsky. That means that Ridley has likely
played in his last game for the Titans. His cap number for next year would be almost $27 million next season. If the Titans cut him, they will save just over $10 million.
Ridley was the Titans’ best receiver in 2024 when he caught 64 passes for 1,017 yards and four touchdowns. He looked poised to have an even bigger season this year after reports in camp about how good his chemistry was with Cam Ward. That didn’t come to fruition with Ridley struggling with drops early in the season. He then suffered a hamstring injury early in the week six loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Today was his first game back after missing three games, and he suffered the broken leg on his first and only catch of the game.
As if things for Ward and the offense weren’t already tough enough, they just got tougher for the rest of the season.
