Can Calvin Ridley Earn Back a Starting Role?

Sunday, April 26, 5:37 AM

Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley has become the forgotten piece of Tennessee's passing offense. After paying up to land former Giant Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency, the team spent the fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Ohio State prospect Carnell Tate, continuing to add youth to a group that saw rookies account for 41.2% of the team's receiving yards in 2025. While three of the Titans' four leading pass catchers were first-year players, it was Ridley who was leading the team in targets and yards before a broken fibula ended his season after only six games. His 48.3 receiving yards per game ultimately held up as the most on the team, all accomplished before quarterback Cam Ward took significant strides toward the end of his own rookie season. If Ridley can earn his way back into three-receiver sets alongside Tate and Robinson, he could become a steal at his current cost of RotoBaller's dynasty WR91.

Mecole Hardman Joins Active Roster for Divisional Round

Friday, January 16, 4:45 PM

The Buffalo Bills announced on Friday that they elevated wide receiver Mecole Hardman from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster for Saturday's Divisional Round game against the hosting Denver Broncos. The team also elevated running back Frank Gore Jr. from the practice squad. Hardman will give Buffalo extra receiver depth after Gabe Davis (knee) and Tyrell Shavers (knee) both tore their ACLs in last Sunday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs. Joshua Palmer (ankle) is also on Injured Reserve for the Bills, so their depth at the WR position behind Khalil Shakir will be tested in Denver. The 27-year-old Hardman is unlikely to have a big role on offense this weekend against a tough defense. In just two regular-season games in 2025, he had one target and no receptions.
