Andre "Bubba" Caldwell (born April 15, 1985 in Tampa, Florida) is an American football wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League. He played college football for the University of Florida. He is the younger brother of former UF star Reche Caldwell, who plays for the St. Louis Rams.
Caldwell was a quarterback who also lined up at receiver and returned punts for Tampa's Jefferson High School. He was named a Parade All-American following his senior season in 2002. In part because of his brother's legacy–and his friendship with Florida commitment Chris Leak, Caldwell chose to play for the Gators. He played in the 2003 U.S. Army All-American Bowl.
His first season in college resulted in just 19 catches, and he was kept out of the end zone. His sophomore season in 2004 saw an increase to 43 catches and 3 receiving touchdowns, as well as two rushes for 66 yards and one score.
