Dallas Cowboys elevate Super Bowl champion WR from practice squad for Week 6

The Dallas Cowboys have been dealing with a flurry of injuries at wide receiver throughout the first five weeks of the season, and star pass catcher CeeDee Lamb and electric playmaker KaVontae Turpin will once again be held out of action in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers.

So, with the team light at the position, the Cowboys had to call up some reinforcements from the practice squad.

On Saturday, Dallas elevated Super Bowl champion Parris Campbell to the active roster. Campbell recently returned to the team after being released during the preseason.

Along with elevating Campbell, the Cowboys have signed fellow wide receiver Jalen Cropper to the active roster, while placing running back Miles Sanders on injured reserve.

Campbell spent the last two seasons with NFC East rivals, the 2023 season with the New York Giants, and the 2024 campaign with the Philadelphia Eagles, winning Super Bowl LIX. He spent the first four years of his career with the Indianapolis Colts.

Aiyuk’s “$70M? KEEP IT!” Loyalty Nuke: Snubs Jaw-Dropping Offer to Vow “I’ll Die a 49ers Legend”

In a moment that instantly ignited headlines across the league, Brandon Aiyuk delivered one of the most powerful and unexpected declarations of loyalty the modern NFL has witnessed. At a time when star players are chasing bigger contracts, larger guarantees, and increasingly aggressive market valuations, Aiyuk stood in front of cameras, reporters, and stunned executives and uttered the sentence no one saw coming: “Keep it. I will die a 49er legend.” Those words, simple yet seismic, hit the NFL landscape like a thunderbolt. According to team insiders, Aiyuk was presented with a blockbuster $70 million offer—an offer that analysts widely assumed would be the foundation of his long-term future, whether in San Francisco or another major franchise desperate for a top-tier offensive weapon. Yet Aiyuk didn’t even blink. Instead of leveraging the moment for negotiations, he used it to send a statement that transcended money, contracts, and the transactional nature of professional sports. What followed was a wave of NFL analysts left speechless, fans roaring across social media, and former players praising a decision that seemed to come from another era—an era when identity meant something, when legacy meant more than numbers on a page, and when players fought not only for championships but for the crest on their helmet.
