Titans WR Calvin Ridley injures ankle but returned to practice

Ridley suffered an ankle injury on Saturday, but Brian Callahan said he’s fine.

The Tennessee Titans have big plans for wide receiver Calvin Ridley. Tennessee signed Ridley to a four-year, $92 million contract in the offseason to serve as its No. 1 wide receiver.

Ridley suffered an ankle injury during the Titans’ open practice at Nissan Stadium on Saturday. The good news is that he returned to practice.

After practice, head coach Brian Callahan gave an update on Ridley:

“Calvin Ridley had a little slight ankle issue, he was out for a little bit,” Callahan said. “He came back; he was fine.”

That’s excellent news for Tennessee, which has avoided injuries during the first week of camp, outside of cornerback Chidobe Awuzie.

The Titans need Ridley on the field as he works on developing chemistry with Ridley. Levis threw his first interception of training camp on Saturday in a pass intended for Ridley. It was terribly underthrown. Ridley initially had his man beat but had to stop and wait on the football.
