AFC Notes: Colts, Jaguars, Calvin Ridley, Titans

Colts

  • NBC Sports’ Peter King views the Colts as one of the teams who could be desperate enough for a quarterback that they would be willing to pay the Bears’ exorbitant asking price to move up to the No. 1 pick. 
  • King says the Bears are asking for two future firsts as a part of a major trade package but it’s possible the Colts could get away with paying less, as they’re only three spots away at No. 4. 

Jaguars

  • Jaguars WR Calvin Ridley released a statement following his reinstatement by the NFL: “Today’s reinstatement by the NFL brings an end to a challenging chapter of my professional career, one that was self-inflicted and began with an isolated lapse in judgment. I have always owned my mistakes and this is no different.” (John Shipley)
  • Ridley continued: “I have great respect for the game and am excited for the opportunity to restart my career in Jacksonville. I look forward to showing my new coaches, teammates, and the entire Jaguars organization exactly who I am and what I represent as a player and person.” (Shipley)

Titans

Titans new GM Ran Carthon made it clear that they’re open to any and all options regarding the No. 11 overall pick. 

โ€œWe are always open for business,โ€ Carthon said, per Jim Wyatt of Titans Online. โ€œAll the guys, youโ€™ve got my number, call me.

โ€œBut no, itโ€™s always about just being open, to try and continue to add value. Weโ€™ll listen and field every call, and see what comes from it.โ€
