Calvin Ridley or Justice Hill: Who Should You Start?

Game Script Tips a Passing-Down Back Past a Fading WR3

Justice Hill barely touches the ball, but he doesn't need to do much heavy lifting to profit here — Baltimore's plus game script keeps him relevant on passing downs even with a snap share under 40%. Ridley's usage edge looks bigger than it is: 57% of Tennessee's snaps has only produced a 17% target share, which tells you he's not the first read even when he's on the field. Both are fringe plays for a reason — Hill is capped by a committee role, Ridley by disappearing volume in an offense that isn't projected to control the game. The call favors the passing-down back mainly because his path to touches is tied to game flow, while Ridley's depends on Tennessee sustaining drives it isn't favored to sustain.

What flips it: A Ravens game plan that leans run-heavy on early downs would push Hill's touches back down to fringe territory.
