Sources detail Calvin Ridley’s Nashville airport valet altercation
A to Z Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley was involved in an incident at Nashville International Airport on November 7, where a dispute with a valet driver escalated into a physical altercation resulting in the valet's injury.
- The valet driver is reportedly seeking to press assault charges against Ridley, though it remains unclear if charges have been formally filed or if a warrant could be issued.
- Titans coach Robert Saleh described the incident as a "very minor miscommunication" and stated that the situation between the team and Ridley remains unchanged as of early Monday.
- The incident comes just before the NFL trade deadline, potentially complicating Ridley’s trade prospects due to the legal uncertainty surrounding the case.
- Despite the legal questions, the Titans do not appear to view the situation as a crisis, which may mean the trade market for Ridley remains largely unaffected if interested teams assess the incident similarly.
