Calvin Ridley News
Friday, June 12, 6:32 AM
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (leg) endured a nightmare season in 2025. After missing three games with a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 6, the veteran wideout suffered a season-ending broken fibula in Week 11. All in all, Ridley finished the year with just 17 receptions for 303 yards and zero touchdowns on 36 targets across seven games. While Ridley is still working his way back from the leg injury, he's reportedly begun seven-on-seven work and is expected to be ready to go for the start of 2026. The Titans made a couple of notable additions to their wide receiver room over the offseason, selecting wide receiver Carnell Tate fourth overall in the 2026 Draft and signing slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency. While Tate could immediately usurp Ridley as the Titans' WR1, Ridley should remain a key target for young Tennessee quarterback Cameron Ward. Coming off a serious leg injury and entering his age-32 season, Ridley should not be expected to provide peak production. Still, win-now dynasty managers may have an opportunity to buy low on him entering 2026.

Brandon Aiyuk News
Thursday, June 25, 9:06 AM
In a video posted to Instagram, San Francisco 49ers disgruntled wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk (knee) said that if the Niners release him, he will sign with the Washington Commanders "tomorrow," according to ESPN. Aiyuk, who didn't play at all in 2025 due to a knee injury suffered in 2024, is still under contract with the 49ers, so it's unclear if Washington is actually interested in signing the former first-round talent. San Fran has held onto Aiyuk in hopes of trading him this offseason, but general manager John Lynch said in January that it was "safe to say that Aiyuk has played his last snap with the Niners." The 49ers may be waiting for the start of training camp at the end of July to decide on Aiyuk's status. The Niners signed Aiyuk to a four-year, $120 million contract extension in August of 2024, but he ended up playing in only seven games that year due to a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus in his right knee. The Commanders have been a popular potential destination for Aiyuk to pair with WR1 Terry McLaurin after they have not re-signed Deebo Samuel Sr. in the offseason.
