To say Antonio Callaway had a checkered history at Florida would be putting it lightly. He was suspended for the entire 2017 season due to his part in a credit card fraud scheme and had several other incidents during his time in Gainesville.
That said, he is trying to rehab his image ahead of the NFL Draft, but another problem has come up with the talented wide receiver.
According to NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport, Callaway’s NFL Combine drug test sample came back “diluted.” Callaway said he was over-hydrated prior to the test:
A talented player teams have been doing homework on is #Florida WR Antonio Callaway. Through his agent, Callaway confirmed his drug test sample at the NFL Combine came back diluted. Callaway has told those close to him he was over-hydrated and will address the issue with teams.

There’s no denying Callaway’s talent when he’s on the field, but therein lies the problem — whatever team drafts him won’t be able to depend on him on a weekly basis.
Based on this latest information, we’ll have to see if Callaway gets drafted at all this week.
