There was a lot of speculation pre-release that this may be a precursor. There was no mention of this character in the campaign however. Any thoughts? Perhaps a set up for halo 5?
I always thought it was just one of the Knights.
It’s a Knight.
I believe that that was an early design of knights
Here is a comparison to what is supposedly precursor concept art.
I had considered that it may be a knight but there are definitely a lot of similarities between the two pictures…

That piece of art is fan-made based on the composite image of the ancient evil that was indeed early concept of the Promethean Knights. The creator of the picture simply thought it would be a Precursor. There are no official pictures of Precursors, only fan-made art.
