Titans Restructure Ridley's Contract, Focusing on Draft

On March 16th, the Tennessee Titans have restructured Calvin Ridley's contract to keep him on the roster for a second season with quarterback Cam, Ward.

Signed two springs ago, to a 4-year 92-million-dollar deal, Ridley was expected to be the top-wide receiver, but injuries and inconsistency have limited him to just 20 of 34 possible games, earlier injuries paint a tougher picture heading into his age 32 season.

A hamstring issue sideline him after a game against the Raiders, and he returned in week 10 versus Houston only to suffer a broken leg on his first catch.

Before that, Slow Starts and Drops frustrated fans, though he flashed his old form late in 2024.

Team leaders like General Manager Mike Borganzi see this as setting a reliable Florida wide receiver, much like recent moves at Ed rusher.

Defensive line and cornerback. It avoids desperate fixes and buys time without forcing bad drafts.

Now, expectations are realistic, not starring as the number one option alongside Slotman, Wendell Robinson.

The focus shifts to the upcoming draft, where picks at 35th and 66th could land solid young receivers to build around Ward long-term.

This keeps the Titans flexible to grab the best talent available, ensuring a steady path forward without rash choices.
