After a one-year stint with his new division rival Jaguars, Ridley heads to Tennessee on the big money deal he never got in Atlanta. He’ll now line up alongside veteran pass catcher DeAndre Hopkins and former first-round pick Treylon Burks in the receiving game as part of a movement by the Titans to surround their strong-armed QB Will Levis with talent heading into year two. With two dynamic running backs also residing in the backfield in Tyjae Spears and the recently-signed Tony Pollard, nobody knows for sure exactly the designs new HC Brian Callahan has for the offense, but one thing is for certain –the Titans will not be lacking firepower in the post-Derrick Henry era.
With Levis a menace with the ball in his hands (he sports the league’s highest deep throw percentage in the NFL – bordering on a ridiculous 20%), Ridley should have ample opportunity even with plenty of other weapons available in the offense. The four-year deal he signed indicates that Tennessee plans to make him a fixture in the offense moving forward, and that continuity should allow Ridley to continue contributing as a WR2 in fantasy land in 2024 as he did in 2023.
