Calvin Ridley, Titans $92 million receiver, drops multiple F-bombs over role after loss

Calvin Ridley expressed his frustration with his lack of targets in an expletive-filled rant after the Titans’ 20-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.Ridley joined the Titans this offseason on a four-year, $92 million contract with $50 million guaranteed, but hasn’t been utilized much.He was targeted eight times on Sunday without making a catch and his frustration seemed to get the best of him. “I had targets in what part of the game?” Ridley responded when asked about it by a reporter. When the media member said he had a lot of targets in the fourth quarter, that’s when Ridley really went off. “Alright then, so s–t, I need some in the beginning of the f–king game too,” he said.“S–t is getting f–king crazy for me.
