Callaway reverted to the Buccaneers' practice squad Monday. This was Callaway's second game this season with both Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle) out of the lineup while Jalen McMillan (hamstring) was active but didn't play any snaps. Still, Callaway played just two offensive snaps and didn't draw a target.
The Buccaneers elevated Callaway from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Callaway was elevated for the first time last week to face Kansas City and logged two offensive snaps without drawing a target. Tampa Bay can use all the help it can get at receiver due to Chris Godwin (ankle) being lost for the season, Mike Evans (hamstring) out for a third straight week and Jalen McMillan (hamstring) questionable against the 49ers on Sunday. Even with all of those injuries, Callaway doesn't figure to be a major factor versus San Francisco given his snap count last week.
Callaway reverted to the Buccaneers' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction long Callaway was elevated to the active roster ahead of Monday's 30-24 loss to Kansas City, failing to log any stats while playing just two offensive snaps. With Mike Evans (hamstring) and Jalen McMillan (hamstring) both unavailable, Callaway failed to capitalize on his opportunity. If either Evans or McMillan is unable to play Sunday against the 49ers, Callaway could be elevated from the practice squad again.
Callaway was elevated to the Buccaneers' active roster Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Callaway signed with Tampa Bay's practice squad in mid-October, and he's now in line to make his 2024 debut in Monday night's matchup against the Chiefs. The Tennessee product appeared in just three games with the Saints in 2023, recording no stats across 27 offensive snaps. Expect Callaway to serve as a depth piece in a depleted Buccaneers wide receiver room in Week 9.
Callaway signed a deal with the Buccaneers' practice squad Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Callaway spent the offseason with the Steelers before being cut at the start of training camp. He quickly found a new opportunity in New Orleans, where he spent his first four seasons, and spent training camp in the Big Easy. However, he was unable to make it through final roster cuts. The fifth-year pass catcher will now look to make an impression with a new NFC South team in Tampa.
The Saints cut Callaway on Sunday. The move is to make room on the Saints' 90-man training camp roster for wide receiver Shaquan Davis. After being let go by Pittsburgh in late July, Callaway returned to New Orleans on Aug. 1 after spending most of the 2023 season on the Saints' practice squad. He played 16 snaps (15 on offense, one on special teams) in Saturday's 16-14 preseason win over the Cardinals, but he was unable to convert on his lone target from quarterback Spencer Rattler late in the fourth quarter. Should he clear waviers, Callaway will look to earn a spot on another team that is in need of depth at wide receiver.
The Saints signed Callaway to a contract Thursday. The move comes after the Saints waived tight end Tommy Hudson (undisclosed) with an injury designation. Callaway spent the first four years of his career in New Orleans, starting in 2020. His best season came in 2021, when he posted 46 catches for 698 yards and six touchdowns across 17 regular-season games. Callaway signed with the Steelers in January after appearing in just three games in 2023, but he was let go by Pittsburgh on Tuesday. With Equanimeous St. Brown dealing with a hamstring injury, Callaway has the opportunity to earn a spot as a depth wide receiver behind Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed and Cedrick Wilson.
The Steelers let go of Callaway on Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Callaway signed with the Steelers on a reserve/future contract in January after finishing the 2023 season on the Saints' practice squad. He played in three regular-season games for New Orleans last year, but did not register a catch across his 27 snaps on offense. Callaway's most productive season came in 202, when he registered 46 catches for 698 yards and six touchdowns across 17 regular-season games with the Saints.
