SOURCE: changing rotors and breaks
to depress the pistons insert a large flat screw driver through the opening in the caliper, put the screw driver between the pad and the rotor, this may take a few try's, use a hammer if necessary, since u are changing rotors, once u get the large screwdriver or flat pry bar in between the inboard pad and the inside rotor pull outward, this will slowly push in the caliper hydraulic piston back and allow removal of the caliper.

You may need to replace the flexible brake line going to the caliper. One little spec of rust or dirt will restrict the brake fluid from returning to the master cylinder which will keep the caliper depressed
SOURCE: Once you take the rear caliper loose, how do you get the pads off
pull the rods out and there should be no worries
SOURCE: how change brake pads on 07 expedition
loosen the bleeder screw and try to press the caliper in some.

You need to take off the tire and using a prybar or large screw driver, force the caliper open by prying in the brake pad through the opening on the ccailper. One you get some slack in it, there are two bolts or screws in the ears of the caliper that must be removed. They may be an allen wrench style or a torx style. Not the bolts that hold the caliper bracket to the hub. Caliper should be able to be removed now. You then need a "C" clamp or caliper pistor compressor to push the piston all the way into the caliper in order to make room for the new pads. Good luck.
