Calvin Ridley Chose Jaguars Over Multiple Teams
1 year agoJacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley said the Atlanta Falcons gave him a list of six or seven teams that made acceptable offers for his services at last year's trade deadline. "I think it's a perfect spot for me," Ridley said. "I had an opportunity to choose from a bunch of different teams, and that's why I chose this one. It felt like home and I liked the roster a lot." Ridley said he's focused on getting his "name and reputation" back in 2023 after missing nearly two full seasons of action. The former 1,300-yard receiver has plenty of upside with quarterback Trevor Lawrence at the helm for Jacksonville, but it could take time for him to knock off the rust from an extended absence from the field.
