  • Magnetized to end zone

    Ridley caught four of six targets for 48 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 34-33 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The second-year wideout is on one his characteristic touchdown outbursts, with four scoring catches over Atlanta's first six games of the 2019 campaign. Ridley accounted for an even more impressive six-touchdown run between Weeks 2 and 4 of last season en route to a 10-TD output by season's end. The upcoming matchup against the Rams is a promising one for Ridley to build upon his scoring total, as Los Angeles has surrendered two 100-yard receiving outings, as well as touchdown passes to seven…read more

  • Team's leading receiver in loss

    Ridley hauled in five of a team-high nine targets, collecting 88 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 53-32 loss to the Texans.

    Analysis: It's been the tale of two Ridleys through five weeks of the talented wideout's sophomore campaign: He has 60-plus receiving yards and a touchdown in three different games this season (Weeks 1, 2 and 5), but just a combined four catches for 38 yards in his other two. He's played at least 60 percent of Atlanta's offensive snaps in every game thus far in 2019, with nearly eight targets per game if excluding his enigmatic one-target outing in Week 3. Ridley and the Falcons' receiving corps prepare…read more

  • Another quiet outing in Week 4

    Ridley caught three of six targets for 32 receiving yards during Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old Ridley jumped out to an electrifying start to his sophomore campaign with 12 catches for 169 yards and two touchdowns through Atlanta's first two games of the season, However, he's been targeted just seven times since, with three catches for 17 yards against Indianapolis and Tennessee the past two games outside of the 21-yard reception he recorded Sunday. Week 5 doesn't present the most encouraging matchup for Ridley to get back on track, as the Texans have allowed just one…read more

  • Good to go

    Ridley (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Tennessee, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ridley was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday before closing out the week with a full session. He should be fine to handle his usual role, coming off receiving lines of 8-105-1 and 1-6-0 the past two weeks.

  • Remains limited in practice

    Ridley (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Though RIdley's reps were capped for the second day in a row, McClure relays that the wideout is expected to be fine for Sunday's game against the Titans while he manages a right hip injury that dates back to the Falcons' Week 2 win over the Eagles. Ridley proceeded to play 46 of Atlanta's 61 offensive snaps (75 percent) in the team's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis last weekend but drew just one target during the contest.

  • Picks up hip injury

    RIdley was limited in practice Wednesday by a hip injury, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: After reaching the end zone in both Weeks 1 and 2, Ridley was targeted just one time this past Sunday at Indianapolis while playing 75 percent of the offensive snaps. Such a workload is in line with his share from the first 19 appearances of his career, but a hip issue could impact him this weekend. As a result, Ridley's activity level Thursday and Friday should be watch as the week goes on.

  • Just one target in Week 3 loss

    Ridley recorded one reception for a gain of six yards during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts.

    Analysis: Ridley's lack of production comes as a surprising dud after the second-year wideout compiled 12 receptions for 169 yards and two touchdowns between Weeks 1 and 2. He was truly the only main component of the Falcons' passing attack that Indianapolis was capable of holding down, as Julio Jones, Mohamed Sanu and Austin Hooper all had six-plus receptions and more than 65 receiving yards. Week 4 presents a matchup against a Titans defense that is yet to allow an opposing wideout to exceed 80…read more

  • Hits century mark

    Ridley caught eight of 10 targets for 105 yards and a score in Sunday's 24-20 win over Philadelphia.

    Analysis: Ridley and Julio Jones both saw double-digit targets and both put up huge games on a night when the Falcons' run game was non-existent. The 24-year-old already has two touchdowns through two games after posting 10 in an impressive rookie campaign. With 16 targets through Week 2 (5.8 targets per game last year), Ridley appears to have carved out a bigger role in the offense in his sophomore campaign, which will please his fantasy owners heading into a matchup against the Colts on Sunday.

  • Multiple big catches

    Ridley hauled in four of his six targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 against Minnesota.

    Analysis: Ridley was out-targeted by both Julio Jones and Austin Hooper, but made the most of his opportunities by racking up big plays. His first catch of the contest came early in the second quarter when he hauled in a 20-yard reception, but the highlight came two quarters later when he caught the team's first touchdown -- which also went for 20 yards. Ridley is likely to see inconsistent volume with the team spreading targets between Jones and Hooper as well as Mohamed Sanu, though Ridley has shown…read more

  • Targeted twice

    Ridley hauled in one of two targets for nine yards in the team's fourth preseason contest against Washington.

    Analysis: Ridley hauled in his lone pass on the team's initial drive, a short pass to the right. He remained on the field for long stretches of the first half but got only one other target, which came on the team's final drive prior to halftime. This was likely Ridley's longest appearance of the preseason, and has totaled three receptions for 37 yards while appearing in two contests. Most importantly, he appears to be healthy heading into the regular season after suffering a hamstring injury early in…read more

  • Looks good in limited action

    Ridley caught both of his targets for 28 yards during Thursday's 22-10 preseason loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Ridley's participation in this contests suggests he's fully recovered from his late-July hamstring injury. Both of his catches came on Atlanta's opening drive. After flashing immense talent with 10 touchdowns as a rookie, the 2018 first-rounder is looking to find more game-to-game consistency in Year 2.

  • Returns to practice

    Ridley (hamstring) returned to practice Sunday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: The wideout, who suffered a hamstring injury back on July 25, missed the Falcons' first two preseason games, but he was back on the field, in full pads, Sunday. It's unclear if Ridley will suit up for Thursday's exhibition tilt against the Jets, but assuming no setbacks, the second-year player -- who hauled in 10 TD passes last season -- is on line to serve a key pass-catching role in an Atlanta wideout corps led by Julio Jones, one that also includes veteran Mohamed Sanu.

  • Unlikely to play Thursday

    Ridley (hamstring) isn't expected to suit up for Thursday's Hall of Fame Game against the Broncos, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Since the calendar flipped to June, Ridley tended to a sore foot at the end of the offseason program and so far has missed most of training camp due to a right hamstring injury. During recent practices, he's worked out with the rehab group. With exhibition season kicking off early for the Falcons, it's no surprise the team is holding out the vast majority of the starters and other key members to help parse out positional battles lower on the depth chart. Having said that, Ridley's current…read more

  • Making progress with hamstring

    Ridley (hamstring) worked with the rehab group during Monday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ridley tweaked his hamstring Thursday and was held out of practice over the weekend. He took a small step forward Monday, but the Falcons aren't quite ready to put him back on the field for full-team drills. There hasn't been any suggestion that Ridley's injury is a major concern for the team.

  • Unable to practice Saturday

    Ridley (hamstring) did not practice Saturday, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Dan Quinn said Ridley's hamstring was simply "sore" and the coach didn't want to push the second-year wideout until he was able to effectively explode through routes. It's unclear if Ridley did receive an MRI as was reported Friday, but the lack of a firm timeline from Quinn suggests more information surrounding the severity of the injury should be delivered over the next few days.

  • May get MRI

    Ridley (hamstring) now is expected to get an MRI, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ridley's injury still isn't believed to be serious, but the Falcons at least want him to have some tests before he's cleared for a return to practice. Coach Dan Quinn suggested Thursday that the young wide receiver could be back on the field as soon as this weekend.

  • Avoids MRI

    Ridley (hamstring) doesn't need an MRI but will undergo one as a precautionary measure, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This supports coach Dan Quinn's stated expectation of Ridley returning to practice within the next few days. The young wide receiver was removed from Thursday's session after suffering a minor hamstring injury.

  • Expected back Saturday

    Coach Dan Quinn expects Ridley (hamstring) to be ready for the Falcons' next four-day block of practices, which begins Saturday, William McFadden of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: The hamstring injury Ridley sustained Thursday is being characterized as a tweak, and the fact that the wideout could be back at work as soon as Saturday would seem to confirm the minor nature of the issue.

    Ridley tweaked his right hamstring during Thursday's practice, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

  • Back on the practice field

    Ridley (foot) appeared to be near full strength when participating in mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ridley was back to his old self Tuesday, making acrobatic receptions look routine after sitting out last Thursday's voluntary session with a sore foot. It's evidently a boost for the Falcons offense to have the second-year wideout active and involved, as Atlanta went 4-3 last year in games in which Ridley had a touchdown catch, and 3-6 in nine appearances when he did not. Some touchdown regression is to be expected given the team's plethora of receiving options, but Ridley does offer ample…read more

  • Missing practice with sore foot

    Ridley was held out of Thursday's practice with a sore foot, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ridley has reportedly had an impressive offseason and it's not clear how much of a setback this injury might represent, though it's possible his removal could have been merely precautionary. We should know more no later than next week, when the Falcons hold mandatory minicamp from June 11 through June 13.

  • Receives endorsement from coach

    Coach Dan Quinn believes Ridley has potential to take a jump in his second season, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. "What's exciting is that [Ridley's play] can go up a big notch," Quinn said Wednesday. "In his instance, it's the route-running and the explosiveness he has, that connection with [Matt Ryan] continuing to grow, that's a really big piece."

    Analysis: Ridley was the second receiver selected in last year's draft and his production far exceeded that of any other rookie wideout. The 24-year-old paced his class in receptions (64) and receiving yards (821) by narrow margins while blowing away all other first-year wideouts with 10 touchdowns. Though it will be tough for him to match that scoring count in 2019, Ridley's growing connection with Ryan and favorable coverages opposite Julio Jones could allow the Alabama product to push for WR2 value.

  • Reaches 10 touchdowns as rookie

    Ridley caught all five of his targets, collecting 32 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 34-32 win against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Ridley's rookie campaign was accompanied by lofty expectations. The No. 26 overall pick delivered by coming within 180 receiving yards of a 1,000-yard season and providing 10 receiving touchdowns, three more than the second-best rookie wideout was able to manage in that category. Ridley carries strong potential to continue providing flex production in 2019, but with top targets Julio Jones, Mohamed Sanu and Austin Hooper all projected to return, his upside seems to be capped as a low-tier WR2…read more

  • Scores long touchdown

    Ridley caught three of five targets for 90 yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Ridley had a rather modest day heading into the fourth quarter before breaking for a 75-yard touchdown which gave his team a lead they would never relinquish. The big play propelled him to the team lead in receiving yards on the day and was the third time he reached the 90-yard mark in his rookie campaign. Ridley is up to 789 receiving yards and nine touchdowns heading into next Sunday's season finale against the Buccaneers.

    Ridley caught five of seven targets for 42 yards during Sunday's 40-14 win over Arizona.

    Analysis: The catches were there for Ridley, but the big-play production still eludes him. Through his last five games, Ridley is averaging just 9.9 yards per catch, nearly four full yards fewer than his average through the first nine games of the season. The rookie burst onto the scene with six touchdowns in his first four games, but he's scored just twice since then and has topped 50 receiving yards just twice in that span.

    Ridley caught one of four targets, managing 10 receiving yards during Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Packers.

    Analysis: Ridley has been shut down over each of the past two weeks against top-seven pass defenses in Green Bay and Baltimore, compiling a combined 32 receiving yards on four catches in those contests. He had averaged 57.8 receiving yards per contest between Weeks 1 and 12.

  • Good to go for Week 14

    Ridley (hand/elbow) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's contest at Green Bay, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ridley has posted impressive peripheral numbers as a rookie, namely 9.1 yards per target and a 16 percent touchdown rate. That said, he's tallied his eight scores in five different games and surpassed 50 yards receiving just five times in 12 contests. A productive outing is very possible this weekend against a Packers defense that has conceded 165.6 receiving yards per game and 17 total touchdowns to wideouts in 12 outings this season.

    Ridley (hand/elbow) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Ridley's reps were capped for the second day in a row, but there haven't been any reports suggesting his availability for Sunday's game against the Packers in serious jeopardy. Top wideout Julio Jones (foot) seems to be less healthy than Ridley, though coach Dan Quinn said he expects Jones will also be good to go for the Week 14 matchup. In the event Jones fails to progress as anticipated, Ridley and Mohamed Sanu would both see sizable boosts in their respective fantasy outlooks for the weekend.

  • Limited by pair of injuries

    Ridley practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday due to hand and elbow injuries, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Two weeks ago, Ridley dealt with a thigh concern before tearing up the Saints secondary on Thanksgiving Day to the tune of eight catches (on 13 targets) for 93 yards and one touchdown. Last week, he tended to ankle and elbow issues, only to post three receptions for 22 yards on five targets last Sunday against a staunch Ravens secondary. He's now ditched the ankle injury but has added a hand issue to the mix. Coming off the second-worst performance of his rookie campaign in terms of yardage,…read more

    Ridley hauled in three of five targets, managing only 22 receiving yards during Sunday's 26-16 loss to Baltimore.

    Analysis: Outside of a highly productive showing on Thanksgiving night against the Saints -- eight catches for 93 yards and a touchdown -- Ridley has been thoroughly contained over the past quarter of the regular season, failing to exceed three receptions or 40 yards against Baltimore, Dallas and Cleveland. Even in the largely impressive Week 12 showing against New Orleans, Ridley coughed up a fumble inside the Saints' 5-yard line that came back to cost Atlanta dearly down the stretch.

  • Cleared to face Ravens

    Ridley (ankle) doesn't have a designation on the Falcons' final injury report for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Ridley was listed as a limited participant for every practice this week, but the Falcons apparently don't have any qualms about his health heading into Sunday. He should be fine to fill his usual role while facing a stingy Baltimore defense ranked first in yards allowed per pass attempt (6.2) and second in passing yards allowed per game (203) this season.

    Ridley (ankle/elbow) was limited at Thursday's practice, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Ridley has been injured at times during his rookie campaign, but he has logged at least 60 percent of the snaps on offense in eight of 11 games, including each of the last five. His peripheral numbers -- 9.5 YPT and 17.0 percent TD rate -- suggest he's set to erupt on a weekly basis. However, the presence of target-hog Julio Jones keeps Ridley contained most games. Assuming he puts ankle and elbow issues behind him, Ridley has a tough matchup Sunday against a Ravens defense that has allowed…read more

    Analysis: Ridley was listed on the practice report with a thigh injury last week, eventually catching eight of 13 targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in a 31-17 loss to the Saints on Thanksgiving Day. He apparently picked up a couple more issues along the way, but his ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday puts him on track to play in Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Ridley corralled eight of 13 targets, putting up 93 receiving yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 31-17 loss to New Orleans. The rookie wideout also lost a fumble inside the Saints' five-yard line during the fourth quarter.

    Analysis: Ridley has feasted on the Saints' bottom-five pass defense, with four of his eight touchdowns this season coming against Atlanta's NFC South foe. Offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian has featured the rookie wideout as a focus of the game plan when facing New Orleans, with Ridley averaging 10.5 targets per game in those contests, compared to five targets per game in all other appearances.

  • Good to go for Thanksgiving Day

    Ridley (thigh) practiced fully Wednesday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Saints, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ridley's thigh issue was never thought to be a major worry, but his availability to avoid even a questionable tag heading into the Thanksgiving Day matchup provides further confidence in his health. The wideout enjoyed his best outing of the season in the Falcons' previous meeting with the Saints in Week 3, finishing with seven receptions for 146 yards and three touchdowns on eight targets.

    Ridley (thigh) was a limited participant at Tuesday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The thigh injury might be just a minor concern and something that won't jeopardize his status for the Falcons' Thanksgiving Day matchup with the Saints. Ridley has popped up on Atlanta's injury reports on a few occasions during his inaugural campaign but has suited up for all 10 games, posting 39 receptions for 532 yards and seven touchdowns in those outings.

    Ridley (thigh) was a limited participant at Monday's walk-through, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Ridley has made a few appearances on Falcons injury reports this season, but he has yet to be a gameday inactive. Since his 146-yard, three-touchdown outburst Week 3, he's been a complementary option to Julio Jones in the passing attack, surpassing 50 yards receiving just two times in seven games. Overall, though, Ridley has posted an impressive 10.0 yards per target and seven TDs among his 39 receptions.

    Analysis: Ridley finished fourth on the team in targets and managed a long gain of just 14 yards in this quiet performance. He bobbled what should have been an easy catch in the fourth quarter, resulting in a Dallas interception which set up a touchdown. Ridley has been rather quiet over his last six games, topping 50 receiving yards just once while making one trip to the end zone during that span. The rookie enjoyed a monster performance against the Saints in Week 3 and will look to replicate that…read more

    Ridley hauled in three of five targets for 37 yards, adding one rush for three yards during Sunday's 28-16 loss to the Browns.

It's possible that opposing defenses are keying on the explosive Ridley, as he's averaged 5.5 targets in the "comedown" games, compared to 8.5 targets in his two 70-yard receiving performances. We may normally expect a rebound…read more

  • Breaks scoreless streak

    Ridley caught six of nine passes for 71 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 38-14 win over Washington. He added a 6-yard run.

    Analysis: The rookie first-rounder scored six touchdowns during the first four games of the season, so fans could be forgiven for being puzzled as to why the young stud went scoreless in three straight games with just 128 total yards during that span. He got back on track in the final seconds of the first half, settling over the middle and then chugging up the field for a 40-yard score. Ridley has been targeted at least five times in six of his last seven games. With his big-play ability, the production…read more
