Colts WR Parris Campbell is a player to watch vs. Vikings

It’s easy to forget that Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell was a second-round pick in 2019.

After all, in his rookie season, Campbell finished with just 18 catches for 127 yards and a touchdown in seven games.

However, heading into 2020, Campbell was predicted by many to have a breakout season with Philip Rivers at the helm in Indianapolis.

In a Week 1 loss to the Jaguars, Campbell finished with six catches for a game-high 71 yards.

Campbell’s 72.3 Pro Football Focus grade ranked 24th in the league for receivers in Week 1.

If you watched the Vikings’ Week 1 loss to the Packers, you know that Minnesota’s pass defense needs some work.

If you’re considering playing Campbell in your fantasy football league, it’s probably not a horrible idea.

If you’re trying to be optimistic as a Vikings’ fan, it’s probably that Rivers is not Aaron Rodgers and Campbell is not Devante Adams. This should be more of an even matchup for Minnesota’s secondary.
