Campbell signed a one-year deal with the New York Giants, potentially worth $6.7 million, including $3 million fully guaranteed. New York is aiming to strengthen the wide receiver position for newly re-signed quarterback Daniel Jones, released free agent disappointment Kenny Golladay on Wednesday.

Campbell entered free agency following the first full season of his career. In 2022, he played in all 17 games for the Indianapolis Colts, having never played more than seven games in a season before.

Campbell, 25, eager to prove himself when healthy after a career plagued by injuries, faced challenges due to the Colts’ quarterback issues. Despite Indianapolis starting three quarterbacks in the 2022 season, he set career highs with 63 catches for 623 yards.

The New York Giants are set to sign free agent linebacker Bobby Okereke to a four-year, $40 million contract, including $22 million guaranteed, according to sources speaking to ESPN’s Jordan Raanan and Adam Schefter on Monday night.

In 2022, Okereke, 26, excelled in the Indianapolis Colts’ recording a career-high 151 tackles, with 99 being solo stops.

This is expected to be one of the Giants’ most significant free agent signings this offseason. The G-Men urgently needed a veteran middle linebacker, and Okereke was among the top available inside linebackers.

Okereke excelled in both run and pass coverage for Indianapolis. He has also shown versatility, playing both linebacker positions during his time with the Colts.

A 2019 third-round pick from Stanford, Okereke has started 49 games for the Colts. He has been durable, missing only two games in his four seasons.

For the New York Giants, this move is a smart one. Just a week after signing Daniel Jones to a four-year deal, general manager Joe Schoen and coach Brian Daboll have provided him with a new offensive weapon.

The Giants will send a third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, No. 100 overall, which the Giants obtained in the trade with Kansas City that sent Kadarius Toney to the Chiefs, as confirmed by the Giants press release.

Darren Waller, 30, is one of the NFL’s top receiving tight ends. Standing at 6-6 and weighing 255 pounds, he has played in 74 regular-season games with 52 starts, amassing 298 receptions for 3,572 yards and 19 touchdowns. The other tight ends on the roster—Daniel Bellinger, Lawrence Cager, Dre Miller, and fullback Chris Myarick—have a combined total of 55 career receptions.

I did not see this coming. I was getting ready to just do everything I could to make myself available for the Raiders and get ready for everything that was going to start in mid-April. So, it caught me off guard. But it’s the nature of the business.”

When healthy, Waller is among the league’s most productive tight ends. In 2020, he broke a Raiders franchise record with 107 receptions. Waller also achieved consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, with 1,145 yards in 2019 and 1,196 yards the following year, when he scored a career-high nine touchdowns and earned a Pro Bowl selection.

“With Dabs, just seeing him from when he was in Buffalo, you just see a high-octane offense,” Waller said. “A lot of playmakers, ball just flying around the yard no matter the weather conditions. It’s just an exciting brand of football, and you can tell by the way he’s come here, I feel like he’s really empowering players. And you can tell by just me looking at the tight end group that they had (in 2022), from the outside looking in, receivers that the casual fan may not know a lot about, but they’re making clutch plays in clutch moments. So, to see him and how he gets everybody involved and the creativity in which he does that, I’m excited to just be in the mix and be a part of what this offense is going to try to do.”

Let’s all welcome Darren Waller to Big Blue!
