While the New Orleans Saints‘ wide receiver situation isn’t great, the reason the team didn’t go out and make a blockbuster trade for a receiver is simple — The Saints believe in Marquez Callaway. After the early portions of training camp and one preseason game, it’s not hard to see why the team is putting stock in Callaway.

This is wild to think about too, as this time last year, Callaway was an unknown receiver out of Tennessee who went undrafted and signed with the Saints shortly after the 2020 NFL Draft wrapped up.
