Calvin Ridley Regains Weight After Stomach Virus

Saturday, August 1, 11:16 AM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley said he lost almost 15 pounds while dealing with a stomach virus but has since gained the weight back, according to Terry McCormick. Ridley also said he had eaten Chipotle before becoming ill, though the report did not identify the restaurant as the cause. The update is welcome after a quiet offseason in which Ridley's work was limited. His 2025 season ended after seven games because of a broken fibula and high ankle sprain, leaving him with 17 catches for 303 yards and no touchdowns. Tennessee added Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency and selected Carnell Tate fourth overall, giving Ridley more competition for targets this season. With the lost weight already restored, there is no indication in McCormick's report that the illness remains an active concern. Ridley's camp usage and role alongside Tennessee's new receivers are the more important fantasy developments to follow.

Jahan Dotson Running With Falcons' Starters in Training Camp

Thursday, July 30, 1:15 PM

As expected, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson is running with the starters in the early days of training camp, according to Will McFadden of AtlantaFalcons.com. McFadden added that Dotson made an early play in Thursday's full-team period that "showed why he could be an excellent complement for the other weapons in this offense." Dotson ran a crosser route and quietly created separation to catch the ball over the middle with plenty of room to gain yards after the catch. The middle of the field is an area that the Falcons have been looking to attack more consistently, and Dotson "could be a player who shines in that role." The 26-year-old could become the team's WR2 behind starter Drake London in new head coach Kevin Stefanski's offense, making him a late-round sleeper target. Dotson has found the end zone just once in the last two years with the Philadelphia Eagles, but is a former first-rounder who produced 1,041 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns in his first two years with the Washington Commanders.
