The team officially signed defensive back Nazeeh Johnson and offensive lineman Mike Caliendo, who had been “exclusive rights free agents” entering the offseason. They tendered both players last month.
Players become exclusive rights free agents by having an active-roster contract expire before accruing three seasons of service time (a mark that would see them qualify for restricted free agency).
