Brian Daboll Says it's "Good to Have" Calvin Ridley on Roster

Tuesday, May 5, 9:51 AM

When asked about Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley's (leg) place in the offense after the additions of Wan'Dale Robinson and rookie Carnell Tate, new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll said, "It's good to have him here," according to Nick Suss of The Tennessean. "We've changed some stuff as we've gone, but he's smart. He's a good player. He's a good teammate. I've got a lot of appreciation and love for Rid," Daboll added. Ridley played in only seven games in 2025 due to a fractured fibula, but before his injury, he struggled with drops and finished with 17 catches for 303 yards and zero touchdowns. The 31-year-old veteran just never seemed to be on the same page with rookie quarterback Cameron Ward before his season-ending injury. Ridley has a history with Daboll, but the additions of Robinson and Tate are bad news for Ridley's fantasy value in both redraft and dynasty formats. Second-year wideouts Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike will also be looking for bigger roles in Tennessee's passing attack.

Chase Brown's Stock Back on the Rise After Surviving Another Offseason

Monday, May 4, 6:01 AM

For the third time in his young career, Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has to be listed among the dynasty offseason winners after the team added no competition through either free agency or the NFL Draft. A fifth-round pick in 2023, Brown earned the Bengals' RB1 spot by the start of his second season, and after back-to-back top 12 finishes, he is once more in line to handle a bellcow role on one of the league's most potent offenses. Like many of his Bengals teammates, the third-year back struggled in the early stages of 2025, held back by shoddy quarterback play as Joe Burrow missed nine games with a Grade 3 turf toe injury, but by the end of the season, Brown was a legitimate fantasy league-winner. After failing to reach 50 rushing yards through any of his first six games, Brown paced as the RB6 over the final 12 weeks of the season, good enough for an overall RB8 finish. Yet, with the constant perceived threats to his job security, he heads into his age-26 season as RotoBaller's dynasty RB13. While the price to acquire is by no means cheap, especially with his value back on the rise following another quiet Bengals draft, Brown could be the exact piece needed to push contending managers into title contention.
