Callaway recorded two receptions on four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Callaway lost out on targets to both Tre'Quan Smith and Mark Ingram, though he salvaged his day with a 15-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter to bring the Saints within two. His only other catch on the day came earlier on that same drive when he gained 22 yards deep down the sideline. Callaway has five catches for 62 yards in two games with Trevor Siemian as the starter to go along with two touchdowns. He'll head into a Week 11 matchup against the Eagles having recorded at least three catches in four of his last five contests.

Callaway caught three of six targets for 25 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-25 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Callaway had a seventh target that he dropped, but the play was nullified by a penalty. Even if it had counted, Callaway still wouldn't be averaging five targets per game on the year. While this modest volume was worth a roll of the dice when Jameis Winston (knee) was available, losing Winston for the season was a blow to Callaway's outlook, even if the indefinite absence of Michael Thomas (ankle) means Callaway won't have to share the top of the depth chart. Whether it's Trevor Siemian or Taysom Hill at quarterback for New Orleans in Week 10 against Tennessee, Callaway probably will need to find the end zone to be of use in fantasy lineups.

Callaway caught three of five targets for 30 yards during Sunday's 36-27 win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Now seven games into the year, Callaway has topped 50 receiving yards just twice. Things won't get any easier if Jameis Winston (knee) is forced to miss time, as New Orleans is likely to revert to a highly run-heavy gameplan if Taysom Hill (concussion) or Trevor Siemian needs to run the offense. Combined with the return of Tre'Quan Smith and the impending return of Michael Thomas (ankle), it may not be a surprise if Callaway's huge Week 5 performance against Washington goes down as an anomaly come season's end.

Callaway caught three of seven targets for 32 yards in Monday's 13-10 win over the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Callaway got open in the back of the end zone on New Orleans' first scoring drive, but a Seattle linebacker was able to knock the ball down on its way to Callaway, forcing the Saints to settle for a field goal. He led all Saints wide receivers in catches, targets and receiving yards, as running back Alvin Kamara (128 receiving yards and a touchdown) was the only New Orleans pass-catcher that was able to get going in this one. Callaway had totaled three touchdowns in his previous three games, and this was his lowest yardage total since Week 2, so he'll likely bounce back in Week 8 against the Buccaneers.

Callaway caught four of eight targets for 85 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 33-22 win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
The second-year receiver tied Alvin Kamara for the team lead in targets and finished one back in receptions, but Callaway led the Saints in receiving thanks largely to a 49-yard TD on a hail mary at the end of the first half. He then snagged a 12-yard strike from Jameis Winston early in the fourth quarter as New Orleans pulled away. Callaway will head into a Week 6 bye with 13 catches on 21 targets for 222 yards and three scores, but he could face additional competition for Winston's attention on the other side of the break with both Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) eligible to return.

Callaway caught two of two targets for 74 yards during Sunday's 27-21 overtime loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Callaway was silent before popping for a 58-yard gain at the start of the third quarter. Meanwhile, Deonte Harris easily paced the team with eight targets while no other Saints player saw more than three. Though Callaway is technically the No. 1 perimeter option while Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) are sidelined, his upside is clearly capped by a low-volume New Orleans passing game that saw Jameis Winston set a season high with 23 passing attempts Sunday. However, his low floor is at least coupled with a high ceiling in Week 5 against a Washington defense that has surrendered 10 passing scores through four weeks.

Callaway had four receptions (five targets) for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Patriots.
EDGE Analysis
Callaway turned in his best performance of the season as the Saints move to 2-1. He continues to serve as the club's top option at wide receiver, but that hadn't resulted in much fantasy production due to the conservative nature of New Orleans' offensive game plan. Callaway will look to build on this performance in a soft matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

Callaway caught two of four targets for eight yards in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Jameis Winston only completed 11 passes all afternoon in a truly terrible performance, but Callaway still led all Saints' wideouts in catches and targets. The second-year player still appears to be atop the depth chart for New Orleans, but between a blowout win in Week 1 and a complete no-show by the Saints' offense in Week 2, he hasn't had much of a chance to turn that role into real volume. Callaway faces a potentially tough matchup next week as well, on the road against the Patriots.

Callaway caught one of two passes for 14 yards during Sunday's 38-3 win over the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
After a summer full of hype, Callaway didn't seem to have a large role in the game plan despite the absences of both Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring). Instead, Jameis Winston spread the ball around to eight different receivers with Adam Trautman (six targets) and Alvin Kamara (four) getting the most attention. However, it should be noted that Winston needed to throw only 20 passes in this one, and Callaway would be an obvious candidate to see more looks when the Saints do need to air it out more often. The second-year receiver will look to rebound in Week 2 against Carolina.

Callaway enters Week 1 against Green Bay as the Saints' likely No. 1 receiver, while Michael Thomas (ankle) is out for at least five games and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) for at least three, Amie Just of The Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas is on the PUP list, and Smith is on injured reserve. Callaway barely made the team as an undrafted rookie last season, but he now finds himself as the likely go-to receiver for Jameis Winston, who otherwise has Alvin Kamara and a couple of young, unproven tight ends. Callaway caught eight of nine targets for 165 yards in two preseason games, including a pair of TDs from Winston. The Saints' depth chart behind Callaway doesn't offer much, with Deonte Harris, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Chris Hogan and Ty Montgomery all candidates to handle various roles.
