Breaking NFL News on Chat Sports - star Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley was suspended by Roger Goodell at least through the end of the 2022 NFL season for violating the league’s gambling policies. Ridley stepped away from the team last season due to mental health reasons, and the violations occurred while he was away from the team. This is obviously massive Falcons news, who now find themselves in a tough spot without their top wideout. Ridley had also been in the mix of certain NFL trade rumors, though it doesn’t appear that he’ll be dealt anytime soon now. Chat Sports host Tom Downey breaks it all down on this edition of NFL Daily.

Roger Gooddell in his letter to Calvin Ridley:
“There is nothing more fundamental to the NFL's success - and to the reputation of everyone associated with our league - than upholding the integrity of the game. This is the responsibility of every player, coach, owner, game official, and anyone else employed in the league. Your actions put the integrity of the game at risk, threatened to damage public confidence in professional football, and potentially undermined the reputations of your fellow players throughout the NFL.”

Atlanta Falcons official statement on the Calvin Ridley news:
“We were first made aware of the league's investigation on Feb. 9. We have cooperated fully with the investigation since receiving notice and support the league's findings and actions. We are moving forward in the 2022 season with the decision that was made. With the decision that was made by the NFL, any further questions on the investigation should be directed to the league office.”
