Titans Not Shopping Calvin Ridley Ahead of Trade Deadline

Sunday, November 2, 5:32 PM

The Tennessee Titans are not shopping wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hamstring) ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. trade deadline, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Davenport's post on X claims to refute other reports that said Ridley was being shopped. However, he does note that the team has been receiving interest in Ridley. Even though the Titans aren't actively trying to move the veteran receiver, he could still be traded if another team makes a fair offer. Such a scenario would open the door for rookies Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike to occupy even larger roles on offense.

Nico Collins Does Not Have an Injury Designation vs. the Broncos

Saturday, November 1, 5:23 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is ready to return to the lineup in Week 9 against the Broncos after missing Week 8 with a concussion. Collins is in a tough matchup against a strong pass defense, but he still brings elite upside. The fifth-year receiver from Michigan has averaged 7.7 targets per game this season and has 26 catches for 339 yards and three touchdowns. Before leaving Week 7's loss to the Seahawks, Collins had four catches for just 27 yards. He has been held under 100 yards in five of his six games this season, and even though he has WR1 upside, he's risky this week returning in such a tough matchup. The Broncos have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points in the NFL to receivers, so Collins checks in as the No. 18 WR in the RotoBaller rankings for the week. Get him back in your lineups this week, but temper expectations.
