It’s normal for teams to give players a ramp-up period during offseason workouts, particularly given Ridley’s year-plus absence. Pederson said by the time camp arrives, the 28-year-old will be full-go.
“Oh, certainly. Yeah, certainly,” he said. “Once the guys come back for camp — now we have some exceptions, not necessarily Calvin, but we do have some exceptions to that rule. But yes, wheels are off.”
Ridley brings a dynamic element to the Jags’ offense, a go-to target who can beat coverages with stellar route running. Assuming the rust is knocked off by camp, the reigning AFC South champs should be ready to roll out a dynamic offense behind Lawrence come Week 1.
