Calvin Ridley Injured in Practice on Wednesday

Wednesday, July 30, 11:45 AM

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (calf) limped off from the team's practice on Wednesday while holding his right calf, according to ESPN's Turron Davenport. Davenport speculates that it could simply be a cramp, but the severity and nature of the injury are unknown. Losing Ridley would be a major issue for the Titans' offense, which is already low on proven receiving talent. In 17 games for Tennessee in 2024, the 30-year-old recorded 64 catches for 1,017 yards and four touchdowns. Ridley is the unquestioned number one option for rookie quarterback Cam Ward. If he were to miss time, veterans Tyler Lockett and Van Jefferson, as well as rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike, would be in line for increased usage.

Ladd McConkey Not Practicing Tuesday

Tuesday, July 29, 3:56 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (undisclosed) isn't practicing on Tuesday because of an undisclosed injury. Head coach Jim Harbaugh doesn't seem concerned, though, as he said McConkey is "working through something minor." A second-round pick out of Georgia last year, the 6-foot, 185-pound McConkey sparkled as a rookie with 82 catches on 112 targets, 1,149 yards, and seven touchdowns. McConkey is quarterback Justin Herbert's go-to guy and should be in line for another terrific season this year. RotoBaller has McConkey as the 10th-ranked receiver going into 2025.
