Calvin Ridley will remain with Titans after reworking contract
The Tennessee Titans have locked wide receiver Calvin Ridley into their plans through a $20 million restructuring deal, ensuring he remains in Nashville as long at least one more year ahead of his original four-year contract. This agreement comes after speculation regarding the veteran's future following what was described by some reports as a poor 2025-26 campaign where recorded stats included zero touchdowns on just three receptions with an average yardage per catch under eighteen yards, though he is currently listed questionable for lower leg injuries expected to return in May.
