Campbell was elevated to the Eagles' active roster from their practice squad Monday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports. Campbell's addition to the Eagles' active roster comes as no surprise, as the 27-year-old will provide depth in the team's wide receiver room with A.J. Brown (hamstring) and potentially Johnny Wilson (hamstring) missing Monday night's contest. Campbell doesn't project to see much work in Week 2, but he could see limited offensive and special-teams action.

Campbell was elevated to the Eagles' active roster from their practice squad Monday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports. Campbell's addition to the Eagles' active roster comes as no surprise, as the 27-year-old will provide depth in the team's wide receiver room with A.J. Brown (hamstring) and potentially Johnny Wilson (hamstring) missing Monday night's contest. Campbell doesn't project to see much work in Week 2, but he could see limited offensive and special-teams action.
Campbell is a candidate to be elevated from the Eagles' practice squad ahead of Monday night's game against the Falcons, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. With both A.J. Brown (hamstring, questionable) and Johnny Wilson (hamstring, questionable) dealing with injuries, elevating Campbell would provide the team with some wideout depth ahead of Week 2 action. Also in the mix in the team's WR corps, but not on the injury report, are DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson and Britain Covey.
The Eagles signed Campbell to their practice squad Wednesday. Campbell inked a one-year deal with the Eagles in March before failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster Tuesday. He'll look to make an impression on the Eagles' practice squad after posting 20 receptions for 104 yards and no touchdowns across 12 regular-season games with the Giants in 2023.
The Eagles are slated to release Campbell on Tuesday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Campbell spent much of training camp dealing with a groin injury, but he managed to suit up for and impress during Philadelphia's preseason finale by catching both of his both his targets from Kenny Pickett for 34 yard. As a result of his ability to contribute both as a depth wideout and in the return game, Campbell should have little difficulty resurfacing as at least a practice squad player this season, whether with the Eagles or another squad.
Campbell caught both his targets for 34 yards and returned one kickoff for 18 yards in Saturday's 26-3 preseason loss to the Vikings. The former Colt and Giant has dealt with a groin strain for most of training camp, but he looked healthy Saturday as he got the start and caught both of Kenny Pickett's longest completions of the day for 19 and 15 yards. Campbell was signed in the offseason to compete for the No. 3 wideout role behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, but the Eagles' trade for Jahan Dotson on Thursday likely bumps him one rung further down the depth chart. Campbell's ability to contribute on special teams -- he averaged 30.4 yards per kickoff return in college at Ohio State -- might be what saves his spot on the 53-man roster.
Campbell (groin) appears to be a full practice participant Wednesday, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Campbell returned to limited participation last week and is now practicing without any restrictions. He's competing for the No. 3 receiver job, with challengers Johnny Wilson and John Ross both in concussion protocol at the moment.
Campbell (groin) returned to practice Tuesday as a limited participant, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports. Campbell was out for more than a week, missing a handful of practices as well as Philadelphia's preseason opener. Limited participation Tuesday suggests he's not likely to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Patriots, but he's at least on the right track to suit up for the final exhibition Aug. 24 against Minnesota. Campbell opened camp as Philadelphia's No. 3 receiver in three-wide sets -- a role he'll need to defend against competition from Johnny Wilson, John Ross and others.
Campbell isn't practicing Sunday due to a groin issue, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports. The severity of the injury isn't clear but may be addressed by head coach Nick Sirianni following practice. It could be detrimental to Campbell's position in the wideout pecking order if he's forced to miss significant time in camp, as Sirianni previously stated that the No. 3 receiver role for the coming campaign is an open competition. Campbell is trying to rebound from a rough season with the Giants last year in which he caught 20 passes for only 104 yards and no touchdowns over 12 games.
Campbell opened training camp as the No. 3 receiver with Philadelphia's first-team offense, Bradon Lee Gowton of Bleeding Green reports. While it's no surprise to see the sixth-year pro getting the first crack at the job, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni made it clear there will be open competition. Rookies Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson should also get their chances, and 28-year-old speed demon John Ross is a dark horse candidate after coming out of retirement. Campbell had only 104 receiving yards in 12 games for the Giants last season and now finds himself in Philadelphia on a one-year contract with less than $500,000 guaranteed.
