Parris Campbell was drafted in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft, but he had a rough start to his professional football career.

After an injury-riddled first three years with the Colts, Campbell managed to play in all 17 regular season games in 2022. He racked up over 623 yards on 63 receptions last season.

When free agency kicked off earlier this week, Campbell departed Indy and signed a one-year contract with the New York Giants.

He underwent surgery several times as he recovered from the injuries.

Before starting his sophomore season, Campbell was in a car accident resulting in a concussion. He went on to tear the MCL and PCL in his left knee during that season.

Campbell spoke about how he handled the adversity.

"My career is what it was," Campbell said Friday during a Zoom call with reporters. 

"It was tough, very tough, those first three years. Being able to bounce back from each and every injury that I had, I really learned a lot about myself. I feel like I grew as a man, as a person, a player, obviously. It allowed me to grow in so many different areas because I’ve seen a lot of myself that I didn’t know that I had. I was able to fight and bounce back so many different times. It really showed me a lot."
