Parris Campbell Fantasy

Free-agent wide receiver Parris Campbell signed an undisclosed deal with the New York Giants on Thursday, according to a source. The former Ohio State Buckeye is coming off a career-best 62-catch, 623-yard, three-touchdown season in 2022 with the Indianapolis Colts last year, also adding two rushing touchdowns. Campbell has been very injury-prone in his career to this point, never playing more than seven games in a single season heading into the 2022 season. The 25-year-old provides speed from the slot, though, and will provide a modest upgrade for a Giants team that could still use some more upgrades at the position alongside Wan'Dale Robinson and Sterling Shepard. The G-Men surely aren't done adding to the WR room, so it remains to be seen how big of a role Campbell will have in 2023.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell led his team with 52 receiving yards in their 38-10 Week 17 blowout loss to the New York Giants. Campbell made three catches out of six targets for a 17.3 yards per catch average. The 25-year-old had his first catch in the Colts' opening sequence when quarterback Nick Foles found him for a one-yard completion on first down. He was also involved in the Colts' biggest play of the game when he caught a third-down pass from Foles for a 49-yard pickup in the latter part of the first quarter. Aside from those completions, Campbell was a little involved in Indianapolis' offense. His third and final catch in the game came in the fourth quarter when Sam Ehlinger was already behind center. While Campbell and the Colts will finish their season by hosting the Houston Texans next week, keeping him off the fantasy football radar is best.

The targets for Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell continue to be low. He was targeted just five times in their Week 16 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, leading to 19 receiving yards. He had 13 yards on three targets in Week 15 versus the Minnesota Vikings. Campbell has responded well with increased targets, like his 76-yard performance in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders, where he caught seven passes on nine targets. An uptick in his numbers is possible, considering that they will encounter the New York Giants in Week 17. The Giants have allowed 220.5 passing yards per game and are tied for the fewest interceptions with four. Despite these numbers, Campbell has been an underutilized asset in the Colts offense. Look for better options at wide receiver, even if he is available.
