Who Should I Start? Parris Campbell or Maurice Alexander

Tuesday, September 30, 6:06 PM

The Dallas Cowboys have signed veteran wide receiver Parris Campbell to their practice squad, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Campbell, a former second-round pick, has battled through multiple significant foot and knee injuries throughout his six-year career, limiting him to 1,117 receiving yards and six touchdowns across 49 games. The Cowboys are dealing with injuries at wide receiver, most notably losing CeeDee Lamb for the next few weeks and Jonathan Mingo, who was placed on injured reserve prior to the season. Campbell could be elevated from the practice squad as soon as this week, but with the Cowboys' deep receiver group, he carries little to no fantasy value at this time.

The Chicago Bears signed free-agent wide receiver Maurice Alexander to a Reserve/Futures deal on Friday, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. New head coach Ben Johnson is poaching Alexander from the Detroit Lions after the 28-year-old spent the last three years in Detroit. The former undrafted free agent out of Florida International has only appeared in four NFL games, though, with all of them coming back in 2022. In his four games for the Lions, he caught his only target for a gain of seven yards. Alexander will head to Chicago with a firm grasp of Johnson's offensive concepts, although he will still be a long shot to make the 53-man active roster to begin the 2025 season out of training camp. He will most likely stick on Chicago's practice squad next season.
