Who Should I Start? Calvin Ridley or Jahmyr Gibbs

Saturday, July 12, 1:52 PM

TennesseeTitans.com's Jim Wyatt writes that Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley appears to be re-energized in his second season with the team with the addition of rookie first-round quarterback Cam Ward. Ridley has taken the first overall pick under his wing this offseason, and they have both formed a strong bond both on the field and off. For Tennessee's offense to take a step forward in 2025, the Titans will need the chemistry between Ward and Ridley to pay off after Ridley went for 64 catches, 1,017 yards and four touchdowns in his first year with the team in 2024. The 30-year-old is the clear WR1 and should continue to have a high target share, but his fantasy value will be directly impacted by how quickly Ward can adapt to the speed in the NFL. Ridley is ranked at RotoBaller a the No. 32 fantasy wideout.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs said new offensive coordinator John Morton wants him "more involved" in the passing attack this year. "I gotta learn the formations for being split out," Gibbs said. "I'm being split out like way more than I was the past two years. That's good. That's going to be fun. I've been waiting on that." In his first two seasons with Ben Johnson as the offensive coordinator, Gibbs caught 104 passes on 134 targets for 833 yards and five receiving touchdowns. In 2024, he spent more time in the backfield than from the slot or out wide compared to his rookie campaign. David Montgomery will still be involved in the Lions' rushing attack, but if the game-breaking Gibbs is used more through the air, it could easily make him the most valuable fantasy RB in 2025. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 3 back, behind only Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson.
