Vikings' to contend with Packers' De'Vondre Campbell, being touted for having more than just Pro Bowl talent

Jan. 1—Forget about the Pro Bowl, De'Vondre Campbell is now being likened to a hall of famer.

The Green Bay stalwart, who played at the University of Minnesota, is rated as the second-best linebacker in the NFL by Pro Football Focus, but he was a notable snub last month when Pro Bowl teams were named. Yet Packers coach Matt LaFleur had plenty of praise for Campbell leading into Sunday night's game against the Vikings at Lambeau Field.

"I think anytime you have guys that are very talented and you combine that with their work ethic and the intelligence, then you start getting hall of famers, and I think that's the type of player he is," LaFleur said.
