BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley is a solid player. His team agreed when they gave him a four year, $92,000,000 contract before the 2024 season. It doesn't really matter, though, because his quarterback, Will Levis (shoulder, has been one of the league's worst this year.
Dayo Odeyingbo crosses up the chip block and comes free (thanks to a subtle hold by Taven Bryan) to prevent Will Levis from stepping into his throw.

It might actually help Ridley's production if Levis, listed as questionable, isn't able to play in Week 7. The former Jaguar was targeted eight times in Week 6, but the two failed to connect even once. It was an awful display of a sport that didn't resemble a professional football outing.
Did you accidentally drink something poisonous and need to vomit it up quickly? Consider watching all 8 of Calvin Ridley's "targets" in yesterday's game. This is not football. pic.twitter.com/bKbFyxJOWm

Levis threw too low, too high, or too late, but never on the money or on-time to the seventh-year-pro. He's now been dropped in many leagues, and sits at 67% rostered on Sleeper. And that's not even that bad, considering the situation. There should be no urgency to put him in starting lineups -- the Titans face the excellent Buffalo Bills pass defense in Week 7.
