Calvin Ridley Scores First Pro Touchdown

I wrote earlier in the week that it would take Calvin Ridley a few weeks to find his groove in the Atlanta Falcons offense after a no catch performance in his rookie debut. I was wrong, on Sunday Ridley has been able to separate from the Panthers secondary and showcase how explosive of a weapon he can be for this Falcons offense. In the second quarter, Matt Ryan connected with Ridley on an 11-yard touchdown. So far, the Falcons lead 24-17 in the fourth and Ridley has 4 receptions for 64 yards to go with the touchdown. Check out his first scoring grab in the link below.
