The New England Patriots need a top wide receiver.
And they already have one on their sights.
According to multiple sources, the Patriots are set to target free agent receiver Calvin Ridley this offseason. However, the Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to make a push as well.
After staring his career with the Atlanta Falcons, Ridley most recently spent the 2023 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Across his three years, he has 324 receptions for 4,358 yards and 36 touchdowns.
Ridley is one of the top receiver targets available this offseason and has been in the Patriots sights for a little while.
However, with Tee Higgins now available as a trade candidate, the Patriots could make a push for him as well.
Earlier this year, A to Z Sports' Josh Queipo and Kyle Dediminicantanio predicted the receivers contract for the season.
– Franchise Tag Likelihood: High
– 3 years, $60.0 million, $20.0 APY, $27.5M GTD
– Year One Cap Hit: $7.0 million
So let's see if the Patriots make a real effort to land him.
