BREAKING: Fit Giants Wide Receiver to Take Bengals’ Spot…
Tyler Boyd of the Cincinnati Bengals can be replaced in free agency by a wide receiver for the New York Giants.
In 2023, the wide receivers for the New York Giants, even the seasoned Parris Campbell, didn’t produce much. He’s been mentioned as a potential free agent signing in 2024 who may help the Cincinnati Bengals replace seasoned slot receiver Tyler Boyd.
Despite having “a down year” with the Giants, Campbell is one of the better fits for the Bengals, according to Jay Morrison of The Pro Football Network. Though he didn’t make an impression with Big Blue, Campbell “has only made seven drops since joining the league in 2019 and has played 75.6 percent of his snaps in the slot.” Campbell has fewer drops than just 13 receivers with at least 1,500 offensive snaps.
The Bengals, who “drafted Charlie Jones to replace Tyler Boyd, who is a free agent and expected to play elsewhere in 2024,” should be drawn to those figures. But Jones only played 41 offensive snaps and missed six games following thumb surgery in late September.
Campbell’s market value ought to follow suit. Morrison mentioned Spotrac.com, which projects the 26-year-old’s earnings for a one-year contract at $3.5 million. Given that the Bengals “still could have interest in acquiring another inexpensive veteran in the slot,” that number is encouraging.
Given that Campbell did not perform to the Giants’ standards the previous season, they no longer saw a need for him. Wan’Dale Robinson, a rising star who can benefit from the role, is also present.
