Who Should I Start? Colby Parkinson or Brock Bowers

Sunday, October 12, 11:37 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (concussion) cleared concussion protocol but is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. He had previously been listed as questionable after logging three limited practices in a row. The 26-year-old has not been a major contributor in his backup role behind Tyler Higbee this year, totaling four catches, 11 yards, and a lost fumble through three games. Terrance Ferguson and Davis Allen round out the depth chart behind Higbee.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers caught just one of his three targets for 31 yards during Thursday's Week 10 loss against the Denver Broncos. Just a few days removed from a spectacular three-touchdown performance, Bowers came tumbling back down to earth with the first one-catch outing of his young career. On a positive note, this week's dud was likely an anomaly, and he should bounce back in Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys. However, that doesn't negate the fact that Bowers massively underperformed his fantasy projection this week. Managers who started Bowers are likely to enter their Week 10 matchups with an early deficit.
