The Tennessee Titans will look a lot different in Week 1 of 2026 than they did in 2025. For starters, a new head coach will be on the sideline after Tennessee fired Brian Callahan in the first half of the 2025 season.
With the new head coach, whomever it may be, will also come a new staff and a collection of new players, specifically at the skill positions to aide Cam Ward. One move that is very likely to happen, according to Over The Cap, is Tennessee cutting wide receiver Calvin Ridley.
Ridley signed a four-year, $92 million deal with the Titans ahead of the 2024 season after a 76-catch, 1,016-yard season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Prior to that, he was a Second-Team All-Pro with the Atlanta Falcons in 2020.
Ridley is due $21.75 million in 2026, but has just over $3 million in guaranteed money on his contract in 2026. After two straight 1,000-yard seasons, Ridley caught just 17 passes in 2025.
