Calvin Ridley was another preseason darling of the fantasy community last season. Like Pollard, he let drafters down and had a rather pedestrian season. Some are aboard the Ridley hype train once again with reports that he'll see a "Ja'Marr Chase-like" role in the Titans' offense.
This type of usage could be exactly what Ridley needs. Last season in Jacksonville, Ridley was egregiously misused as their vertical, boundary receiver. This is not the role that Ridley is best suited for. Thankfully, Hopkins has built a career in this role.
There are some red flags with Ridely, namely his lack of meaningful fantasy production since 2020. Like the Tennessee running back room, the receiver group features a 1-2 punch that is difficult to project. If Ridley can cement himself as the alpha over Hopkins, he will likely be a quality WR2 for fantasy purposes.

DeAndre Hopkins expected to play Week 1 Fighting through an MCL tear By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 7, 5:21 pm
| | #Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins (questionable, knee) is set to play Sunday at Chicago, per source, though how much he plays is uncertain and could come down to pain management.

FFToday's Take: It sounds like Hopkins could be limited in some fashion tomorrow against the Bears making him more of a WR3 option in Week 1. Hopkins originally suffered the injury in late July and acknowledged it usually takes a full year for the injury to heal. Expect Calvin Ridley to be the main target in the Titans passing game.
