Parris Campbell Poised For Big Role As Slot Receiver
1 year agoIf he can stay healthy, New York Giants wide receiver Parris Campbell seems poised to earn plenty of snaps and targets as the team's starting slot receiver this year, according to The Athletic's Charlotte Carroll. Former slot receiver Richie James had a share of the team lead with 57 catches in 2022. Campbell, a former second-rounder, has played in just 32 games (24 starts) in his four NFL seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, so staying healthy is a big if for him. But his strong season last year (63 catches, 623 yards, three TDs) gives him optimism in his first year in the Big Apple. The G-Men have more options for the slot this year, including impressive rookie Jalin Hyatt, so Campbell will probably have to earn an early season waiver-wire pickup in standard 12-team leagues.
