A few months back, Brandon Staley said that the cornerback position is something that he’s always going to be looking at as long as he’s the head coach.
A man of his word, Staley added his fourth corner this offseason on Tuesday, with the addition of Bryce Callahan.
Staley and Callahan spent time together with the Bears and Broncos when Staley was the outside linebackers coach from 2017-18 and 2019, respectively.
Callahan has played in Vic Fangio’s system for the past seven seasons, making the transition seamless since Staley’s defense is replicative of his.
Callahan struggled to stay healthy in 2021 with a knee injury but had three straight seasons with coverage grades above 75.0 before this prior season, with his ability to stay in phase with receivers and break in on balls thrown.
Check out some of his highlights below to get familiar with the Bolts’ newest addition.
