Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley has been suspended for at least one year after the NFL determined he had placed bets on games last season. Ridley's suspension is indefinite but will be through "at least the conclusion of the 2022 season," the league announced. An NFL investigation determined the infraction took place during a five-day window in November 2021 when Ridley was away from the Falcons. The wide receiver announced on Oct. 31 that he was stepping away from the team to "focus on my mental well-being" and has yet to rejoin the organization. After news of the suspension broke, Ridley tweeted, "I bet 1500 total I don’t have a gambling problem." He added, "I know I was wrong But I’m getting 1 year lol." The NFL found that Ridley did not use inside information or compromise any games. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported Ridley placed three parlays and bet on the Falcons to win. Ridley can apply for reinstatement on Feb. 15, 2023, though he can also appeal the ban. #CalvinRidley #NFL #Falcons
