Colby Parkinson Could Offer Deep League Value in Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 5:52 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson is looking to build off his strong performance against the Arizona Cardinals last week. Parkinson hauled in five of his six targets for 31 yards and a touchdown during last week's win. Coming into that game, Parkinson only had four receptions on the season. The expectation is that Parkinson is going to get more involved after his solid performance last weekend. The Rams are still without Terrance Ferguson (ankle), so Parkinson figures to keep having steady playing time. Fantasy managers should consider Parkinson a potential deep league streaming option ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Elijah Higgins News

Elijah Higgins a Risky Option for Week 11

Saturday, November 15, 6:17 PM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Elijah Higgins has seen an increased role on offense over the last few weeks. Over the last two games, Higgins has hauled in five of his six targets for 49 yards. Despite that, he remains the backup to Trey McBride, who is one of the best tight ends in the league. It's possible that Higgins does see a slightly larger workload with Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) out in Week 11. Normally, Higgins has been playing about 40 percent of the offensive snaps. There's a chance that does increase, but probably not by too much. Higgins is a desperation deep league option for the Week 11 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
