Browns claim QB Joe Callahan after Saints put him on waivers

We couldn't have put someone else on waivers, what about Garrett?

The New Orleans Saints*will not get quarterback Joe Callahan back after the Cleveland Browns claimed the rookie quarterback off waivers Monday, according to the NFL transaction wire.

The Saints waived Callahan on Saturday to promote linebacker Chris McCain from the practice squad.*

There are worse places to be than on the Saints practice team, as he will soon find out!

I figured he'd get picked up when we waived him. Pisses me off too. All because half our team is injured. Grrrrrr.

And I agree...waive Grayson for hells sake.

End of an era.

That wouldn't have helped. The Saints had to clear an active roster spot to bring McClain up. Grayson was on the practice squad. Callahan had to be on the active roster since he was claimed off another team's practice squad which prevented him from being placed on the Saints practice squad this season.

At the rate the Browns are going through quarterbacks, he could be starting in a few weeks.

Just this weekend I was telling my wife that Leonard Fournette just might not go pro after this season for this very reason. Think about it, with the Browns season they are a shoe in for pick 1. Who wants to be the first pick if it's Cleveland on the phone?
