Parris Campbell becoming member of Giants
The New York Giants are signing wide receiver Parris Campbell, formerly of the Indianapolis Colts, to a one-year contract that can be worth up to $7 million in incentives.
What It Means:
Campbell was limited to just 15 games over his first three seasons due to a litany of injuries, but he managed to play in every game last year and had 63 catches for 623 yards and 3 touchdowns on 91 targets. The Giants' receiving group is currently one of the worst in the NFL, so Campbell should have a clear path to consistent snaps and targets. Wan'Dale Robinson and Sterling Shepard are both recovering from ACL tears, leaving Isaiah Hodgins as the only other healthy receiver under contract for the Giants.
Campbell's average depth of target was 6.5 yards last season and he drew 15.9% of the Colts' team targets. Among the 84 receivers with at least 50 targets last season, Campbell was No. 70 in Reception Net Expected Points per target.
