Parris Campbell agreed to a reserve/futures deal to remain with the Cowboys in January, but later appears to be leaving the NFL. The Cowboys placed him on the reserve/retired list, ending his time in the league after seven seasons. Campbell spent three seasons in the NFC East with the Giants, Eagles, and Cowboys, but did not develop a steady impact role. He was on Philadelphia’s Super Bowl LIX-winning roster and played in three playoff games, including the Super Bowl, though he did not record a catch. His contracts in recent seasons were near veteran-minimum levels, and injuries repeatedly limited his availability. His most notable stretch came during his four-year Indianapolis tenure, which was repeatedly interrupted by injuries.
"Parris Campbell agreed to terms on a reserve/futures deal to stay in Dallas in January. Four-plus months later, the former second-round pick looks to be leaving the sport. The Cowboys moved Campbell to the reserve/retired list Wednesday, The Athletic's Jon Machota tweets. The former Colts draftee spent the past three seasons in the NFC East - 2023 with the Giants, 2024 with the Eagles and 2025 with the Cowboys - but had been unable to make an impact. The Ohio State product will walk away after seven NFL seasons."
"Signing a rookie deal worth just more than $4.7MM, Campbell nearly matched that with a one-year Giants contract in 2023. But a steady role eluded him in New York. The former Indianapolis slot receiver was on Philadelphia's Super Bowl LIX-winning roster, playing in three Eagles playoff games (including the Super Bowl rout of the Chiefs), but was attached to veteran-minimum deals (or close to it) over his last two seasons."
"Although Campbell did not catch a pass in Super Bowl LIX, he saw action on 16 offensive plays. The Eagles did not re-sign him following that conquest, and he made his way to Dallas soon after. The Cowboys signed Campbell to a one-year, $1.34MM deal in March 2025 but released him from IR with an injury settlement in August. Campbell, however, returned to the team in September and played one final game."
"Campbell's career will be best remember for a four-year Indianapolis stay. The Colts added him with the No. 59 overall pick in 2019, but injuries interrupted attempts to become a complementary piece around (and then Michael Pittman Jr.). A knee injury preceded Campbell breaking his hand and foot as a rookie. A PCL tear then occurred in September 2020, ending Campbell's second season. Campbell underwent foot surgery in October 2021; over his first three seasons, the slot player missed 34 games."
