Ridley involved in 'unfortunate' airport incident
NBC Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Titans head coach Robert Saleh described Calvin Ridley's involvement in an incident at Nashville airport as an "unfortunate" and "very minor miscommunication," now handled by law enforcement; Ridley may be traded before Tuesday’s deadline but has underperformed this season.
- Ridley, 31, has modest stats with 6 receptions for 91 yards this season and ranks fourth among Titans receivers in routes run; teams like the Chiefs, Steelers, and 49ers are potential trade suitors, with Ridley possibly available for a late-round pick.
- The Jaguars acquired safety Jessie Bates from the Falcons for 2027 second- and 2028 fifth-round picks, adding a top defender to a strong defense aiming for a deep postseason run.
- Jets defensive end Will McDonald has requested a trade amid limited playing time, but the Jets have not engaged in trade talks and prefer to retain most players despite a 2-7 record.
- Buccaneers receivers, including Chris Godwin and Cade Otton, had underwhelming performances in Week 9, with Godwin continuing a streak without reaching 50 yards; the team faces a bye before Week 11 against the Lions.
