Regarding Calligan, the 6,‘0”, 200 pound cornerback spent this past offseason with both the Seattle Seahawks and Houston Texans. The former First-Team All-Southland Conference member back in 2024 was a standout for Southeastern Louisiana, having previously played collegiately at both Jackson State and Louisiana-Monroe.

He had a pretty good RAS (maximum of 10.0) as a prospect this past draft cycle:

Keydrain Calligan is a CB prospect in the 2025 draft class. He scored a 8.78 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 338 out of 2752 CB from 1987 to 2025.https://t.co/LsgoEb3BMk pic.twitter.com/7TZftHJ4D2

Meanwhile, Forrest was a former 2021 5th round pick of the Washington Commanders.

The 5’11”, 200 pound safety is coming off a season for the Commanders in which he recorded 13 tackles (6 solo) during 10 games (1 start). He signed a one-year deal with the Buffalo Bills this past offseason, but was released as part of final 53-man roster cuts.

Like Calligan, he also has some impressive athletic traits, even drawing a physical comparison to Colts current backup safety Daniel Scott.
