Calvin Ridley suspended indefinitely for betting on games

Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley missed most of the 2021 season and he’s set to miss the entire 2022 season.

The NFL announced that Ridley has been suspended indefinitely for betting on games during the 2021 season. The suspension will run through the end of the 2022 season at least.

Just how many games were tainted? Was RG involved too?

I kinda don't want Ridley to miss the 2022 season.

It's gonna suck if the Falcons end up drafting a guy that we have our eyes on in the draft.

I was thinking the same thing. One more team looking for WR help
through draft/Free Agency to compete with.

Ridley already had mental issues he was dealing with that could have clouded his judgement. I'm not going to say no one else has placed a bet, but these players are preached to avoid anything like this as much as they are preached to avoid cigarettes, per se. You've got to be pretty stupid to bet a couple of hundred when it can cost you millions.

Clearly, as usual, you have no clue. You contradict yourself. First, he has 'mental issues' and next he's "pretty stupid"? Which is it speedo? What do you know about gambling? Never mind it's rhetorical. Clearly you don't know about mental issues because the one you suffer from features denial of the issue itself. You are an evil little man to be sure.

You only make sense when you're stealing someone else's opinion.

Ridley caught gambling
From Rog "There is nothing more fundamental to the NFL's success - and to the reputation of everyone associated with our league - than upholding the integrity of the game. This is the responsibility of every player, coach, owner, game official, and anyone else employed in the league. Your actions put the integrity of the game at risk, threatened to damage public confidence in professional football, and potentially undermined the reputations of your fellow players throughout the NFL.

Owners exposed for tanking games
