Calvin Orin Ridley (born December 20, 1994) is an American professional football wide receiver for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Alabama Crimson Tide, where he was a part of the national championship-winning teams in 2015 and 2017. Drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in the first round of the 2018 NFL draft, he was named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team and earned second-team All-Pro honors in 2020.

After announcing midway through the 2021 season that he would be stepping away from football due to mental health reasons, it was later revealed that Ridley would be suspended indefinitely through at least the conclusion of the 2022 season for violating the league's gambling policy. While suspended, he was traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars and was reinstated the following year.

Early years

[edit]

Calvin Orin Ridley was born to Colin Ridley and Kay Daniels in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on December 20, 1994. He is the eldest of 4 brothers.[1] His younger brother, Riley Ridley, played college football for Georgia and was selected in the 4th round of the 2019 NFL draft.[2] In 2002, Ridley and his younger brothers were taken to a foster home after their father was deported back to Guyana and their mother was imprisoned.[3]

When he was younger, Ridley played Pop Warner football in the same league as Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown and Ravens cornerback Trayvon Mullen, in the Pompano Beach area of Florida just four miles from the high school he would attend.[4] Ridley attended Monarch High School in Coconut Creek, Florida, where he played high school football for the Knights. He played only three games in his senior year due to Florida age restriction rules, which doesn't allow anyone over the age of 19 and nine months to be eligible.[5]

Ridley was rated as a five-star recruit and was considered the best receiver in the class of 2015 according to 247Sports, Rivals, and ESPN.[6] He committed to the University of Alabama to play college football on April 19, 2014.[7] He began enrollment at Alabama on June 19, 2015.[8]

College career

[edit]

Ridley attended and played college football at the University of Alabama under Nick Saban from 2015 to 2017.[9]

Ridley earned immediate playing time as a true freshman in 2015.[10] In his first career game on September 5, 2015, he had three receptions for 22 yards against the University of Wisconsin.[11] He scored his first collegiate touchdown in a victory over Louisiana-Monroe on September 26.[12] In the following game, against Georgia, he had five receptions for 120 yards and a touchdown in the victory.[13] He followed that up with 140 receiving yards and a touchdown in a victory over Arkansas.[14] In the SEC Championship against Florida, he had eight receptions for 102 yards in the victory.[15] The Alabama Crimson Tide made the College Football Playoff. In the 38–0 victory over Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl, he had 138 receiving yards and two touchdowns.[16] In the National Championship against Clemson, he was held to six receptions for 14 yards but the Crimson Tide won the National Championship by a score of 45–40.[17] Ridley led the SEC in receptions with 89 in 2015.[18]

In the 2016 season, Ridley remained a strong threat for the Crimson Tide. In the second game of the season, he had nine receptions for 129 receiving yards and a touchdown against Western Kentucky.[19] On October 1, Ridley hauled in 11 receptions for 174 yards and two touchdowns against the University of Kentucky. His 11 receptions, 174 yards, and two touchdowns were career highs.[20] Over the remainder of the 2016 season, he had 41 receptions for 371 receiving yards and four touchdowns.[21] Alabama once again won the SEC Championship and made the College Football Playoff. However, they fell to Clemson in a rematch in the National Championship.[22]

In the 2017 season, Ridley started off strong with seven receptions for 82 yards and a touchdown in the 24–7 victory over Florida State.[23] On November 11, against Mississippi State, he had five receptions for 171 receiving yards in the victory.[24] Alabama made the College Football Playoff once again in the 2017 season. In the National Semifinal, Ridley had four receptions for 39 yards in the Sugar Bowl.[25] In the National Championship against Georgia, he had four receptions for 32 yards and the late game-tying touchdown to help force overtime in the 26–23 victory.[26]

On January 10, 2018, it was announced that Ridley would forgo his senior year at Alabama in favor of the 2018 NFL draft.[27]

Suspension

[edit]

"I just f***ed up. Period. In a dark moment, I made a stupid mistake. I wasn't trying to cheat the game. That's the thing I want to make clear. At the time, I had been completely away from the team for about a month. I was still just so depressed and angry, and the days were so long. I was looking for anything to take my mind off of things and make the day go by faster."

– Ridley, via The Players' Tribune[3]

The NFL announced on March 7, 2022, that Ridley would be suspended indefinitely through at least the conclusion of the 2022 season for betting on games in the previous season, including on his own team. He forfeited his base salary of $11.1 million for 2022.[61]

Jacksonville Jaguars

[edit]

On November 1, 2022, despite being suspended for at least the entire 2022 season, the Falcons traded Ridley to the Jacksonville Jaguars for conditional 2023 sixth-round and 2024 fourth-round picks. The 2023 pick was to become a fifth-rounder if Ridley was reinstated and the 2024 pick can either become a third-round pick based on playing time or a second-round pick if he signs a long-term extension.[62]

On February 15, 2023, Ridley applied for reinstatement, his first day eligible to do so.[63] He was officially reinstated on March 6, just a day before the first anniversary of his initial suspension.[64] Shortly after, Ridley announced he would be changing his jersey number to 0 after the NFL's jersey numbering system was modified to allow the number 0 to be worn, becoming the first player in franchise history to have the number.[65]

On September 10, 2023, Ridley made his Jaguars debut in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. In his first game in 686 days, Ridley caught eight passes for 101 yards and a receiving touchdown as the Jaguars won 31–21.[66] In Week 11 against the Titans, he had seven receptions for 103 yards and two touchdowns in the win.[67] He had two receiving touchdowns in a Week 16 loss to the Buccaneers.[68] He finished the 2023 season with 76 receptions for 1,016 yards and eight touchdowns.[69]
