Filling nickelback role Callahan (foot) will operate as the Broncos' primary nickelback in 2021 now that the team has added Kyle Fuller to the roster, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Impact With Fuller now joining Callahan in Denver's defensive backfield, coach Vic Fangio will be working with two cornerbacks from the Bears' 2018 defense -- a unit that secured first-place finishes in takeaways and scoring defense. Fuller and the newly acquired Ronald Darby are expected to step in as Denver's primary perimeter cornerbacks next season, while Callahan will be responsible for containing receivers out of the slot. Injuries have heavily impacted Callahan's availability in recent years, with the 29-year-old missing 22 of a possible 32 games the past two seasons because of foot and ankle injuries.

Looking unlikely to return Callahan (foot) is not expected to retake the field this season, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Coach Vic Fangio said Thursday that Callahan's foot injury isn't healing as well as the team hoped, and considering that he won't be eligible to come off IR until at least Week 16, it seems probable that the veteran cornerback could simply be shut down for the year. He had 42 tackles, five defended passes, two interceptions and one fumble recovery in 10 contests.

Shifts to IR The Broncos placed Callahan (foot) on injured reserve Wednesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Impact Callahan won't be eligible to come off IR until Week 16 at the earliest, so it remains to be seen whether he'll suit up again for the Broncos this season.
