Falcons' Calvin Ridley (personal) ruled out for Week 8 clash with Panthers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (personal) has been ruled out of Week 8's game against the Carolina Panthers.

What It Means:

Ridley missed Atlanta's Week 6 game for a personal matter before returning in Week 7. He will be a surprise inactive again in Week 8. With Ridley sidelined, look for Atlanta passing game to run through rookie tight end Kyle Pitts. Russell Gage and Cordarrelle Patterson could also see an increase in targets against the Panthers.

Pitts' Week 8 projection includes 4.6 receptions, 53.0 yards, 0.36 touchdowns, and 9.7 FanDuel points. His salary is $6,800.
