his peers as a low profile but essential part of the team's success. Professional football Campbell was undrafted in the 1999 NFL Draft. He signed as a free agent with the Cleveland Browns and played for them from 1999 to 2002 under Executive Vice President/Director of Football Operations Dwight Clark and head coach Chris Palmer. Ray Perkins served as his tight ends coach. Campbell missed most of the 2001 season with a broken leg suffered in the last week of training camp and placed on Injured Reserve. He was extremely motivated to keep improving so he took his recovery time to lift weights, train, and build his physique while gaining twenty pounds of muscle while keeping his playing weight the same.
