Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley was involved in a mysterious 'incident' at Nashville Airport over the weekend.
Details of what actually happened remain scarce and the Titans refused to offer any more insight in a team statement that was released after WKRN first reported the news.
'We are aware of the incident and are in communication with Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority,' the team said in the statement.
'We will not be able to comment any further at this time.'
Ridley and the Titans were on their bye over the weekend and players are typically given the week off to rest and recover.
Titans head coach Robert Saleh said Ridley was caught up in an 'unfortunate' interaction that is now in the hands of law enforcement. He added it was a 'very minor miscommunication.'

It also comes at a time when 31-year-old Ridley's future in Nashville is in doubt ahead of the NFL's trade deadline on Tuesday.
Ridley has been with the Titans for three years and recently restructured his four-year, $93 million contract to stay in Nashville.
A former first-round NFL Draft pick by the Atlanta Falcons in 2018, Ridley missed the entire 2022 NFL season after getting suspended for betting on games, including some involving his own team.
He was traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars in November 2022 and spent a season in Florida before signing with the Titans as a free agent in 2024.
Like most of his Titans teammates this season, Ridley has struggled on the field this year. Across eight games, he has just six catches for 91 yards.
The Titans, who are 1-7, face a difficult task against the Jaguars when they return to action on Sunday.
