INDIANAPOLIS -- During an injury-ravaged rookie season, Parris Campbell learned what adversity was. Real adversity. Turns out, the Indianapolis Colts wide receiver learned he’d never truly faced it before.
"I learned that I'm human," Campbell said Wednesday afternoon on a Zoom conference call with local media. "We kind of get caught up in, we’re football players, we’re big-time people, but we face real adversity as well. Honestly, up until that point, I couldn’t say that there was really any real adversity that I had faced in my life."
In high school, Campbell was a stud -- a four-star recruit ticketed for the big time.
