McCallan Castles: Everything you need to know

The Packers waived Castles on Friday. Castles spent the 2025 season on the Packers' practice squad, briefly landing on the practice squad/injured list in January. The tight end did not suit up for a single game with the team but was still signed to a reserve/future contract for 2026. The team may be satisfied with the current tight end room led by Tucker Kraft, mitigating the need to maintain excessive depth even through training camp.

The Packers signed Castles to a reserve/future contract Monday. Castles joined Green Bay's practice squad in November, but he did not make an appearance in a single regular-season game. The 26-year-old will participate in the Packers' offseason activities and compete for a spot on their active roster next season.

The Packers placed Castles on the practice squad/injured list Thursday. Castles' spot on the practice squad has been filled by safety Mark Perry.
