NFL free agency has kicked off and one of the most exciting times of the year has some former Ohio State football players padding their bank accounts. One of the beautiful things about being a Buckeye football fan is that we follow alum with the same passion and fandom that we showed during their times in Columbus.
The most recent Buckeye to cash in this off-season is Parris Campbell who signed with the New York Giants for a rumored one-year deal for $1.7 million.
Most Ohio State fans will remember Campbell as one of the most underrated receivers in recent history as he was All-Big Ten three seasons in a row before being selected in the second round of the 2019 NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts.
Campbell’s NFL career has been up and down, with most moments on the downside of the spectrum, but a large reason for that is his injury struggles. Campbell is signing a one-year “prove it” deal with the Giants and is hoping to bounce back for big money in 2024.
