  • Saints' John Ridgeway: Back for Week 10

    Ridgeway (oblique) is active for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

    Ridgeway was sidelined for Week 9 against Carolina due to an oblique injury, but the 2022 fifth-round pick will suit up Sunday. Across six regular-season games, Ridgeway has logged eight tackles (four solo) while serving as the Saints' backup defensive tackle.

  • Saints' John Ridgeway: Inactive versus Panthers

    Ridgeway (oblique) will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Panthers.

    Ridgeway has not played more than 36 percent of the defensive snaps in any game this season, so his being inactive is not expected to have much of an impact defensively. His next opportunity to suit up will come in Week 10 versus the Falcons.

  • Saints' John Ridgeway: Traded to Saints

    Ridgeway was traded from the Commanders to the Saints along with a 2025 seventh-round draft pick in exchange for a 2025 sixth-round draft pick Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    The addition of Ridgeway gives New Orleans some insurance on the interior of the defensive line, as starting defensive tackle Khalen Saunders recovers from a calf injury that could impact his Week 1 availability. Ridgeway appeared in 32 games for Washington over the previous two seasons, notching 55 tackles (30 solo).

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Finishes second year with 31 tackles

    Ridgeway had 31 tackles (16 solo) and one pass defense in 17 games in 2023.

    The 2022 fifth-round pick has started six of 32 games through two pro seasons, recording 55 tackles on 636 defensive snaps. Ridgeway is still searching for his first NFL sack and figures to have a rotational role again in 2024.

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Will play vs. Cowboys

    Ridgeway (foot) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Cowboys.

    Ridgeway was a full participant at practice Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, putting himself on track to suit up in Week 18. With Jonathan Allen out, Ridgeway may actually start Sunday.

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Still dealing with foot injury

    Ridgeway (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Ridgeway was able to play through his foot issue in Sunday's loss versus the 49ers, so any limitations at this point may simply be maintenance-related. If he is able to practice in full Thursday or Friday, he'll likely avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

    Ridgeway (foot) will be active Sunday versus the Jets, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official website reports.

    Ridgeway has been dealing with a foot injury that he suffered last week, but he'll be able to play Week 16 against New York. The defensive lineman recorded three tackles in the team's Week 15 loss to the Rams.

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Sustains pregame injury

    Ridgeway (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Cleared from injury

    Ridgeway (shin) was a full participant during practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Ridgeway left the team's loss to the Dolphins in Week 13 early but is good to go following the team's bye week. He should serve his usual depth role on the interior of the Commanders' defensive line against the Rams on Sunday.

  • Commanders' John Ridgeway: Leaves with injury

    Ridgeway has exited Sunday's game against the Dolphins with a shin injury, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.
