Seven months after winning a Super Bowl 59 championship with the Philadelphia Eagles, veteran wide receiver Parris Campbell will not suit up for the rival team.
Albert Breer: Micah Parsons RETURNS to DALLAS!
On Tuesday, the Dallas Cowboys’ PR team announced on X/Twitter that they signed Parris Campbell to their practice squad. The move comes nine days after Dallas lost All-Pro receiver CeeDee Lamb to an ankle injury in a Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears.
The Cowboys signed Campbell in free agency after the new league year opened, only to release him in August. However, with Campbell having had five months to learn Dallas’ playbook, the Cowboys are bringing him in as an insurance option.
A former second-round pick (59th overall) by the Indianapolis Colts in 2019, Parris Campbell won a Super Bowl 59 championship ring when the Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in the big game.
Campbell appeared in all three postseason games and suited up for five regular-season contests, finishing with six catches for 30 yards and one touchdown, per Pro Football Reference.
Dallas visits the New York Jets at 1:00 p.m. EST on Sunday.

A rash of injuries limited Campbell to just 15 total games over his first three NFL seasons. He finally stayed healthy in 2022 and had a solid season on a lousy Colts team, catching 63 passes for 623 yards and three touchdowns.
Campbell spent the 2023 season with the New York Giants, totaling 20 receptions for 104 yards in 12 games. Of course, he didn’t have it easy with Daniel Jones, Tyrod Taylor and Danny DeVito serving as the Giants’ three QBs that year.
With Dallas short on quality receivers outside of George Pickens during Lamb’s absence, the opportunity is there for Campbell to step in and become a key contributor on the Dallas offense.
