Calvin Ridley briefly sparked an injury scare when we learned he underwent what was termed “minor” foot surgery back in June, chiefly because nothing seems minor when it deals with your feet. Happily, we got an update from the man himself today, and it’s a positive one.
Per Wendy Adams at 92.9 The Game in Atlanta comes the quote below, which makes it clear the injuries Ridley suffered last year caused pain and Ridley is full-go for the season at the moment. The fact that Ridley was playing through pain and was still killing it while Julio Jones was out is a good indication that he’s going to be lethal this year as Atlanta’s top option in the passing game.
