Colby Parkinson News
Wednesday, June 3, 12:28 PM
Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson put together a career year in 2025, recording 43 catches for 408 yards and eight touchdowns on 56 targets across 15 games. However, Parkinson looks like a prime regression candidate heading into 2026. For one, his production in 2025 was largely fueled by a spike in touchdown receptions, and he remained a low-volume target-earner on a game-to-game basis. Secondly, the Rams have one of the deepest tight end rooms in the league with Terrance Ferguson, Tyler Higbee, and 2026 second-round pick Max Klare all providing playing time competition for Parkinson. Even if Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford leads the league in touchdown passes for the second straight season in 2026, it seems unlikely that Parkinson will be able to match or exceed his 2025 output. Dynasty managers should be looking to sell high on Parkinson before the start of the upcoming season.

James Mitchell News
Wednesday, March 11, 9:28 AM
The Carolina Panthers re-signed tight end James Mitchell to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, a league source told Joseph Person of The Athletic. Mitchell was a restricted free agent. Mitchell will return to Carolina for a second season in 2026 after catching all three of his targets for 28 yards in just five games played a year ago. The 26-year-old was drafted in the fifth round (177th overall) by the Detroit Lions in 2022 out of Virginia Tech. In his first three years in the league in Detroit, Mitchell had 13 receptions on 13 targets for 141 yards and one touchdown in 29 games played (one start). He is not anywhere close to fantasy relevance in Carolina and will serve in a depth role at TE once again behind the likes of Ja'Tavion Sanders, Tommy Tremble, and Mitchell Evans.
