LOOK: Reactions from fantasy players that kept Calvin Ridley on their bench this week

I admit it. I took a late-round flier on Calvin Ridley in both of my fantasy leagues this year.
After a slow Week 1, I thought it might take him a few weeks to find his place in the Atlanta Falcons’ offense. Boy, was I wrong.
Much like many other fantasy owners, I kept Ridley on the bench in both leagues, watching in horror as the former Alabama star put up 138 yards and three touchdowns before the third quarter was even over.
Below, you can see some of the best reactions from fantasy owners like me who made a serious mistake on Sunday:
