Who Should I Start? Calvin Ridley or Deebo Samuel Sr.

Wednesday, November 12, 1:11 PM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hamstring) will return to the practice field on Wednesday, according to Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com. Ridley has not played since injuring his hamstring in the Week 6 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, but the 30-year-old wideout appears to be healthier coming out of the team's bye week. Depending on how he holds up in practices this week, he could make his return this Sunday to face the division-rival Houston Texans in Week 11. Ridley's return would make both rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike a little less attractive as flex options in fantasy lineups, but it's not like Ridley has done much himself in the Titans offense in 2025. The former first-rounder hasn't developed any real chemistry with rookie quarterback Cameron Ward this year and has only 16 receptions for 290 yards and no touchdowns in his six games played.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has had a few down weeks after a hot start to the season. Samuel has posted just 12 catches for 67 yards on 17 targets to go with three carries for three yards over his past three games. The veteran missed Washington's Week 7 matchup in Dallas due to a heel injury, which could be impacting his performance. Samuel will be without second-year quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) for a few weeks, which will likely hurt Samuel's production a bit. In Marcus Mariota's three starts, Samuel has still been solid and leads the team in targets (15) and receptions (11), but is third in receiving yards (94) and has scored one touchdown. Samuel has a solid matchup in Week 10 against a Lions defense that has allowed the sixth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers. Samuel ranks as RotoBaller's WR21 in PPR leagues for Sunday.
