Kurt Benkert says Packers inquired about trading for Calvin Ridley

The Atlanta Falcons traded wide receiver Calvin Ridley to the Jacksonville Jaguars at last year’s trade deadline and the former first-round pick is off to a solid start with his new team.

This season, Ridley has 27 catches for 368 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the Jaguars. However, if it wasn’t for Ridley’s one-year suspension, he could have potentially ended up in Green Bay, according to former Falcons and Packers quarterback Kurt Benkert.
