Calvin Ridley Should Be Started With Confidence
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley has been the No. 1 wideout in fantasy football through two weeks. Ridley is tied for the league lead in receiving yards with 239, ranks sixth with 23 targets and has scored two touchdowns in consecutive games. Week 3 brings a matchup against the Bears, who have yet to allow a 100-yard receiver, though it should be noted they haven't played a passing offense with Atlanta's firepower. Ridley is on fire right now and very well could be the first 100-yard receiver against this unit. If teammate Julio Jones (hamstring) sits out, Ridley would see even more targets in Week 3. Either way, he should be a must-start at this point.
