My Take

Calvin Ridley interests me less for his accolades than for his resilience. Coming out of Coconut Creek, Florida, he was part of Alabama's golden era, winning national championships in 2015 and 2017 before becoming an NFL wide receiver. But what I find compelling is the arc after the highlights, stepping away from the field and fighting his way back to the front line with the Tennessee Titans. I believe a person's worth shows in how many times they get back up, not just how high they once flew. Watching him rise again, contesting balls in the air at 185 cm, is genuinely admirable to me.
