Even though the Jacksonville Jaguars were not able to use Calvin Ridley in the 2022 NFL season, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel with his situation. The wide receiver has now applied for his reinstatement after his indefinite suspension.

The NFL is very strict with the rules for the players outside the field. They must have an impecable behaviour, even more if their decisions could impact the game.

For this situation, Calvin Ridley was unable to play in the 2022 season for gambling on NFL games. But now, he wants to return and has made the first move towards his objective.
