3 Colts players entering their final season with the team

2. The Parris Campbell experience has to be over

When can we just call it quits on fast, injured receivers? The Colts have essentially called it quits on T.Y. Hilton, and he ranks as one of the best in franchise history.

Parris Campbell, on the other hand, is nowhere near this level. In 2020, Campbell went down with a freak injury that sidelined him for the entire season. When he finally returned in 2021, he got injured with a non-contact injury after scoring a deep-ball touchdown.

In the three years that Campbell has been on the team, he has been injured for most of it appearing in just 15 total games and having a mere 360 yards receiving. This is not the production you’d like to see on the Colts, especially when finding weapons to throw to was hard over the last few seasons.

Now, Parris has to compete just for a starting gig that should be his if he stayed healthy.

BONUS: Another young receiver that hasn’t quite made the mark that he needs to have made by now is third-year receiver, De’Michael Harris.

Ballard isn’t playing games anymore and with an improved receiving corp, if you aren’t making plays, you aren’t going to be in Indy for long.

The Colts will let both players walk this offseason, likely to practice squads. Truthfully, it would be a miracle if Parris is able to play all 17 games this season.
