2024 Projections
Strong rookie season
Campbell recorded 95 tackles, 2.0 sacks and one pass defended over 17 regular-season games in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Campbell seemed ticketed for a starting job alongside Alex Anzalone after Detroit spent a first-round pick on Campbell, an off-ball linebacker, in the 2023 NFL Draft. While 2021 fourth-rounder Derrick Barnes opened the year in the starting lineup, both Campbell and Barnes ended the season having logged around 60 percent of the defensive snaps, and Campbell joined Anzalone in the starting lineup for 11 of the final 12 games while Barnes started only eight of those contests (while missing one game to injury). Thanks in part to a larger role on special teams, Campbell ultimately averaged half of a tackle more per game than Barnes along with one more sack and a pass breakup. With plenty of room to grow from a playing-time standpoint combined with Barnes entering the final year of his contract, the 23-year-old Campbell is a strong bet to be in Detroit's long-term plans and is a realistic candidate to have a bigger role entering his second season in the league.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Breaks out at natural position
Campbell had the best game of his NFL career Sunday while playing his natural middle linebacker position, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2023 first-round pick shifted to the middle of the defense with Alex Anzalone inactive due to a hand injury, and Campbell took advantage of the opportunity with career highs of 53 defensive snaps and nine tackles, including two for a loss. It's not clear how long Anzalone might be sidelined, but the Detroit coaching staff could have a difficult decision to make once he's ready to return, as Campbell's role had already been slowly increasing prior to his shift to middle linebacker.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Campbell joins the fold in Detroit and figures to see plenty of playing time before long, especially within an organization that gave a sixth-round rookie in Malcolm Rodriguez more than half of the defensive snaps from the get-go last year. However, even if Campbell can quickly supplant Rodriguez as the second linebacker behind Alex Anzalone, it's fair to wonder if both he and his new mentor can co-exist as significant IDP contributors.
