A four-year, $92 million contract with the Tennessee Titans was reportedly agreed to by Calvin Ridley…

On Wednesday, Calvin Ridley reportedly agreed to a four-year, $92M deal with the Tennessee Titans, removing arguably the best free-agent wide receiver from the market. Teams that missed out on the Ridley sweepstakes could still make a deal for Cincinnati Bengals star Tee Higgins or select a player from a deep draft pool in April. However, while the free agent pickings are getting slim, a handful of impactful players remain unsigned. Here are four of the top remaining wideouts on the market, including which team might be the best potential fit.

Mike Williams | Cut Wednesday by the Los Angeles Chargers, the big-bodied receiver isn’t without risk, having played in only three games last season following a season-ending ACL tear. However, before going down, he ranked fourth in the NFL in yards (249), and at 29 years old, he could still have something left in the tank. Potential fit | Kansas City Chiefs | The Chiefs were mired in issues at wide receiver last year, and an upgrade at the position is necessary. Williams does come with a checkered injury history. Still, if healthy, his experience and skill level would only compliment the likes of tight end Travis Kelce and budding wideout Rashee Rice.

Brown, Marquise A bothersome heel injury kept Brown out of action for the last three games of 2023. He finished the season with just four touchdowns and 51 receptions for 574 yards, which was below his career average. However, the 26-year-old has previously shown off his explosive playmaking abilities, so a change of scenery might be all that’s needed for him to recover.

Possible match: New York Jets Running back and tight end were the Jets’ most effective pass-catchers last season, followed by wide receiver Garrett Wilson (95 receptions, 1,042 yards). Wilson, a two-time 1,000-yard receiver, may see more opportunities on the other side if Brown were to inject some vitality into the receiver group.
