Calvin Ridley News
Saturday, March 14, 10:01 AM
The Tennessee Titans and wide receiver Calvin Ridley have agreed to a restructured deal that will keep the veteran in Nashville for the 2026 season, according to Tom Pelissero. Ridley signed a top-of-the-market four-year deal in 2024, but has yet to make a meaningful impact in Tennessee, dealing with poor quarterback play over parts of the past two seasons and missing ten games to injury in 2025. Perhaps no offense in the league looks different than the Titans since the signing of that deal, with three of the team's four leading receivers in 2025 being rookies and the team bringing in a new head coach and offensive coordinator to guide Cam Ward in 2026. The new regime recently added Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, a move likely to push the 31-year-old Ridley into more of a situational role as Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor, and tight end Gunnar Helm all look to take a year-two leap.

Ladd McConkey News
Sunday, March 22, 8:40 AM
The Athletic's Daniel Popper thinks that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey could have a bounce-back season in 2026 in offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's offense. Popper also believes that for McConkey to bounce back, the Chargers need to avoid re-signing veteran Keenan Allen, who led the team in targets and catches in 2025. McConkey and Allen both thrive in similar areas of the field, so in the absence of Allen in McDaniel's offense, McConkey could become a fantasy football stud again. Popper sees McDaniel maximizing McConkey's "shiftiness and yards-after-the-catch ability" with pre-snap motion and linebacker manipulation. The 24-year-old former second-rounder in 2024 out of Georgia caught 82 of 112 targets for 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games in his rookie season, but he fell to a 66-789-6 line in 16 games in 2025. With more targets and a focus on the offense under McDaniel, McConkey definitely can become a strong WR2 for fantasy managers going into his third year in the NFL.
