Bottom Line

Ridley got a big four-year, $92 million deal from the Titans in free agency, which gives him a shot to emerge as the team’s top target.

But DeAndre Hopkins out-performed him in most key metrics last season. And QB play remains a concern in Tennessee.

That leaves Ridley as just a WR3 target in fantasy drafts.

What We Learned Last Year

  • Ridley was traded to the Jaguars after not playing in 2022 due to violating the league’s gambling policy.
  • His per-game numbers were a slight step below his career averages:
    • 8.00 targets (7.82)
    • 4.47 receptions (4.91)
    • 59.8 yards (66.0)
    • 13.4 yards per catch (13.5)
    • 0.47 TDs (0.55)
  • Ridley ranked as the PPR WR19 in total fantasy points and WR27 in points per game.
  • Last year, he did not miss a game. This was his first full season since his rookie year in 2018.
  • Ridley had five top-12 finishes. He also had nine WR37 or worse finishes.
  • His target share (22.5%) ranked 32nd among WRs.
  • Among 92 WRs with 40+ targets, Ridley ranked:
    • 45th in Pro Football Focus receiving grade
    • 50th in yards per route run (1.57)
    • 22nd in average target depth (13.9).

What to Expect in 2024

  • Ridley signed with the Titans for a four-year deal worth $92 million with $50 million guaranteed. His $23 million per year ranks tied for 14th among WRs.
  • Ridley enters his first season on the Titans under HC and play caller Brian Callahan and OC Nick Holz.
  • The Titans figure to throw it significantly more under the new coaching staff.
    • Four of Callahan’s five Bengals offenses ranked top-12 in pass rate, including a trio of top-6 finishes.
    • The Titans never finished higher than 24th in pass rate in six seasons under HC Mike Vrabel.
  • The Titans are expected to perform similarly to last season. They are fourth in highest win total in the AFC South at 6.5 wins on most sportsbooks.
  • They sit tied for 27th in terms of highest Super Bowl odds at +15000 on most sportsbooks.
  • Ridley enters his seventh season at 29 years old. According to our aging curve research, the average WR with Ridley’s career and profile will produce between 90-96% of his peak value at age-29.
  • DeAndre Hopkins beat Ridley last year in both yards per route run and Pro Football Focus receiving grade.

Will Levis, QB TEN

9:55pm EDT 7/25/24

Will Levis "Really Impressive" In Camp So Far

Titans HC Brian Callahan said QB Will Levis has been "really impressive" through the first two days of training camp.

The Titans signed WR Tyler Boyd to a one-year deal worth up to $4.5 million, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Boyd is reuniting with new Titans HC Brian Callahan, who spent the past five seasons with Boyd in Cincinnati. Boyd went for a career-high 1,046 yards in Callahan's first season as Bengals OC back in 2019, but his yardage has declined each year since, bottoming out at 667 last year. Boyd's Pro Football Focus receiving grade has also been in decline. He ranked 63rd among 80 qualifiers last year.

The Titans surprisingly landed WR Calvin Ridley on Wednesday with a four-year, $92 million deal, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The pact includes $50 million guaranteed, adding Ridley to a WR corps that returns DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks. That's probably the strongest collection of WR talent the franchise has had since moving from Houston to Nashville. And the Ridley move just might be the strongest sign that HC Brian Callahan's Titans plan to throw the ball quite a bit more than the Mike Vrabel version. Even big-money RB Tony Pollard brings more receiving pedigree than rushing. How will all these WRs fit together by target share? Burks figures to sit a clear third, barring some gigantic steps for him this summer. Ridley hasn't been as much of a target earner as Hopkins throughout their respective careers. So we'll likely favor Hopkins between them. But expect both veteran wideouts to garner shares of 20+%. As for scheme fit, Burks enjoyed quite a bit of success from the slot at Arkansas before arriving as a first-round pick. This will be a very interesting offense heading into the 2024 season. And the biggest individual winner might be QB Will Levis. He's available late in best ball drafts (QB27 Underdog Fantasy ADP) but can at least offer high weekly ceilings. There might be top-16 season upside to Levis. Check our best ball rankings for everyone's updated numbers.

Dynasty Write-up
After a hype-filled offseason, Ridley produced an inconsistent 76-1,016-8 line alongside a disappointing Trevor Lawrence. Ridley had said he wanted to return to Jacksonville, but Tennessee swooped in late with a lucrative four-year deal. The QB downgrade makes Ridley an iffy fantasy asset moving forward.
