I’m not 100% sure, but I think it would still be able to be added to iCloud and used on WiFi, etc. It definitely could never be activated on a carrier again - that I do know from working at Verizon for awhile.
Also fwiw, according to an FTC link someone posted in another comment on this post, there’s no legal harm in keeping it. Sometimes the universe just hands you a present. Might as well accept it.
