Calhoun was released by the Chiefs on Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun was cut by Kansas City after the team signed defensive end Matt Dickerson Monday. The 30-year-old linebacker spent time on the Chiefs' practice squad last season, but he never managed to break onto the team's active roster in 2021 and thus failed to play a game for the first time in his six-year career. Calhoun likely will look for a team where he can add some veteran experience during this upcoming regular season.

The Chiefs signed Calhoun to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Charles Goldman of USA Today Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun didn't suit up for game action in the 2021 regular season, but did spend time on Kansas City's practice squad. Back in 2020, the 2016 third-rounder appeared in 10 games for the Patriots en route to logging 18 tackles and two sacks.

The 49ers released Calhoun on Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun spent less than two weeks with the 49ers. The 2016 third-round pick appeared in 10 games for the Patriots in 2020, totaling 18 tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles. He may garner attention from teams looking for a veteran linebacker heading into the regular season.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun's knee issue held him to limited practice participation Wednesday through Friday, and he was handed a questionable tag coming into Week 17. After being unable to play Monday night against the Bills, Calhoun returns to the lineup for his 10th appearance of the season. In his last game Dec. 20 against the Dolphins, the 28-year-old tied his season high in tackles (four) while fielding his second-greatest defensive snap share of 2020 (39 snaps).

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old had four tackles in his return from injured reserve last week against the Dolphins, but he's unavailable Monday due to the knee injury. Josh Uche should see increased work as a reserve linebacker Week 16 for New England.

Calhoun (knee) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old was designated to return from injured reserve earlier this week and is now back on the active roster ahead of Week 15. Calhoun played a rotational role at linebacker prior to the knee injury and should return to that role now that he's healthy.

Calhoun (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun's 21-day window to be activated has begun, and he could return as soon as this Sunday against the Dolphins if the practice week goes well. Prior to getting hurt in Week 9, Calhoun averaged 25.6 snaps per game and posted 14 tackles and two sacks through eight contests.

The Patriots placed Calhoun (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun will be required to miss at least three weeks, so he's not eligible to return until Dec. 6. The 28-year-old outside linebacker's role has fluctuated throughout the season, and he hasn't been dependable in IDP leagues, as he's collected just 14 tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles. Rookie Josh Uche could see more reps with Calhoun sidelined.
