Hillary, 25, originally signed on with the Bengals as an undrafted free agent out of Wisconsin back in 2016. He bounced on and off their practice squad before signing with the Browns’ taxi squad.
He later caught on with the Raiders near the end of the 2017 season and was re-signed to a futures contract, but was waived back in May.
In 2017, Hillary appeared in one game for the Raiders but did not record any statistics.
Calhoun, 22, signed on with the Texans as an undrafted free agent out of Cincinnati in May. He was waived after a month in Houston and signed with the Falcons two weeks ago.
During his two-year college career, Calhoun appeared in 10 games.
