CALVIN RIDLEY NEWS

Works with trainer on side Ridley (foot) got work in with trainers on the side at Monday's practice, Jason Butt of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Interim coach Raheem Morris said that he'll have a better idea of Ridley's availability for Week 11 on Wednesday, when the third-year wideout will be scheduled to get in some individual work. Ridley hasn't played since Week 8 due to a mid-foot sprain, but he's now had the Falcons' bye to get healthy and appears to have a shot at suiting up in New Orleans on Sunday.

Falcons-Broncos inactives: Calvin Ridley ruled out against Denver Along with Ridley, the Falcons will also be without Takk McKinley and Dante Fowler for Sunday's matchup

NOVEMBER 8, 2020 • ATLANTAFALCONS.COM

Sitting out Sunday Ridley (foot) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Impact Ridley didn't practice this week due to a mid-foot sprain, earning a questionable designation for Week 9. His availability was subject to a pregame workout, after which the Falcons opted to give him the week off with a bye on tap. In Ridley's absence, Atlanta's passing game will funnel through Julio Jones, with Russell Gage, Christian Blake and Olamide Zaccheaus in line for any targets that linger.

May not play Sunday Ridley (foot) will go through a pregame workout to determine his availability for Sunday's game against the Broncos, but the Falcons aren't optimistic he'll play, Adam Schefter of...

Impact The 25-year-old was unable to practice this week due to the foot issue and is officially labeled questionable, but it appears he hasn't progressed much since the release of Friday's injury report. Ridley was limited to 23 snaps last week in Carolina due to the injury, and if he's unable to play Christian Blake may receive the spot start. The Falcons have their bye in Week 10, so Ridley would be afforded an extra week to recover should he sit out Sunday.

Falcons injury report: Calvin Ridley questionable, Dante Fowler out vs. Broncos The Falcons have deemed Ridley questionable and ruled Fowler out heading into the weekend

NOVEMBER 6, 2020 • ATLANTAFALCONS.COM

Misses practice, but not ruled out Ridley (foot) was held out of practice again Friday but it listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Denver, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact While the Falcons will leave the door open, Ridley's inability to practice in any capacity throughout the week hints at an uphill battle to be active come Sunday. The Falcons could take it down to a game-time decision ahead of their 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, with Christian Blake oh hand to fill in if Ridley can't give it a go. Blake played 54 percent of the offensive snaps in last week's win over Carolina, catching two passes for 14 yards on two targets. The Falcons have bye coming up in Week 10.

No practice again Thursday Ridley (foot) was held out of practice Thursday, Tori McElhaney of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ridley has yet to practice this week due to the mid-foot sprain he suffered last Thursday at Carolina, but interim coach Raheem Morris noted Wednesday that the team received "good news" about the injury, per D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. That hasn't resulted in any activity on the field, but Ridley does have one more practice to make his presence felt in advance of the weekend.

Day-to-day with foot sprain Ridley (foot) won't practice Wednesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact On the plus side, interim head coach Raheem Morris relayed that Ridley has received "good news" about the mid-foot sprain he suffered in last week's win over the Panthers. For now, the wideout is viewed as day-to-day in advance of Sunday's game against the Broncos. If Ridley is sidelined for the contest, Morris relayed that Christian Blake would be the most likely candidate to fill in on three-receiver sets, according to Jason Butt of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
