Who Should I Start? Colby Parkinson or Davis Allen

Sunday, September 14, 11:33 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as doubtful after missing all three practices leading up to this weekend's game. Parkinson is working his way back from an AC joint sprain that he suffered last Sunday against the Houston Texans. Parkinson was actually able to finish last week's game after receiving medical attention, but evidently, the Rams aren't going to send him onto the field for Week 2. Terrance Ferguson is active for his NFL debut and will assist in filling Parkinson's void alongside a tight end committee that also features Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen. None of these Rams tight ends can be trusted in fantasy football, but Ferguson is an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen caught one of his two targets for 13 yards and a touchdown during Monday night's Wild Card win over the Minnesota Vikings. Allen had minimal playoff experience prior to this week, playing in just one playoff contest last year. He'll get an opportunity to at least double that total this season as the Rams' win gets them into the Divisional Round next week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Allen typically fills a depth role in Los Angeles, but his touchdown and the injury to Tyler Higbee (chest) could open the door for the 23-year-old Clemson product to earn more snaps and catch more passes.
