As for Callaway, the fourth round pick’s deal is worth about $3.125 million, including a $710,000 signing bonus. Both player’s 2018 salaries will fall under the rule of 51, which allows teams to stay under the cap during the offseason by only accounting for the top 51 salaries on the roster for that year.
