Veteran defensive ilneman Calais Campbell is still playing at a high level, and that was just one reason he decided to return for a 17th NFL season
Calais Campbell easily could have walked away from the NFL this offseason without any regrets, but he also had some good reasons to return for a 17th NFL season. And specific reasons to want to do it with the Miami Dolphins.
“I never thought about for very long,” Campbell said. “I mean, the last three or four years, I go through the season kind of like just with everything I have and try to empty the tank so that if I want to retire at the end of the year, I feel like I can go out and I feel like I gave football everything I had. But once the season was over, I felt pretty healthy. Everything was feeling too good.
While signing with South Florida means a return to his college home, the former University of Miami standout listed the quality of the team and new defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver, with whom he spent two seasons in Baltimore, as the major reasons why the Dolphins became the choice. Campbell is hoping to be one of the final pieces to get the Dolphins to the next level, maybe get as far as the Super Bowl.
