Who Should I Start? Calvin Ridley or Jameson Williams

Tuesday, November 18, 6:35 PM

The Tennessee Titans officially placed wide receiver Calvin Ridley (leg) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Tuesday and signed receiver James Proche II to the active 53-man roster in a corresponding move, according to Jim Wyatt of the team's website. Ridley broke his fibula in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans and will miss the rest of 2025. In addition to Ridley's injury, rookie wideouts Chimere Dike (chest) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) were injured in Week 11 and did not return. It means the Titans' WR corps could be dangerously thin for their Week 12 tilt against the visiting Seattle Seahawks. If Dike and Ayomanor are both unable to play this weekend, it would mean much larger roles for veteran Van Jefferson and Mason Kinsey in the passing game, with tight ends Chig Okonkwo and Gunnar Helm also seeing target boosts.

After an underwhelming start to the 2025 season, Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has caught fire in recent weeks. Over his last five games, the 24-year-old has recorded 20 receptions for 339 yards and four touchdowns on 29 targets. On paper, Williams should have a good chance to extend his hot streak in Week 12 against the New York Giants. Through 11 weeks, the Giants have allowed the sixth-most passing yards (2,641) and seventh-most passing touchdowns (19) in the NFL. Recent developments in Detroit also favor Williams. In the two games since head coach Dan Campbell took over as his team's play-caller, Williams has been targeted 14 times and is averaging 20.7 yards per reception. Additionally, the Lions will be without tight end Sam LaPorta (back) in Week 12, which will lessen the target competition in Detroit. Williams profiles as a high-end fantasy WR2 in Week 12.
