Tennessee also agreed to a 1-year deal with ex-Steelers QB Mason Rudolph. Mason’s contract is worth over 3.5 million dollars.
After returning from a campaign-long 2022 ban for violating the league’s gambling policy, Calvin caught 76 passes for 1,016 yards and 8 TDs for Jacksonville in the past campaign. The campaign opener vs. the Indianapolis Colts marked 23 months between matches.
Ridley shared at the beginning of the year that he wants to play for Jacksonville in the upcoming season because of the relationships he built and not wanting to adapt to a different team system, but he admitted that he is not sure that it will be possible and what contract he would be offered will be a key.
Jaguars acquired the wide receiver in a trade with Atlanta at the beginning of November 2022 – giving a 2023 5th-round selection and a conditional 4th-round selection for this year’s draft. He earned over 11 million dollars in the past campaign while playing for Jacksonville.
