Should I Start Calvin Ridley in Week 12? Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks (2024)

Calvin Ridley - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Should I start or sit Calvin Ridley for fantasy football in Week 12 (2024)? Read our fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks and fantasy lineup recommendations.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-12+ Team Leagues

POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 / WR3

ANALYSIS: The Tennessee Titans have struggled offensively, but Calvin Ridley remains crucial in their passing game. Quarterback Will Levis has developed a solid connection with him, and with the Titans often playing from behind, Ridley is set to see plenty of opportunities. The trade of DeAndre Hopkins earlier this season has also worked in Ridley’s favor, increasing his target share.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

In Week 11, Ridley caught four passes on six targets for 58 yards in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Although the offense is inconsistent, Ridley has been trustworthy and should continue to see a good amount of work.

This week, Ridley faces a Houston Texans defense that surrenders the eighth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers, which bodes well for his potential.

Despite missing Wednesday’s practice due to illness, there are no signs that he will miss time. Given the favorable matchup and his consistent role, Ridley is a solid WR2 option in 12+ team leagues this week.
