Colby Parkinson Facing More Competition Than Ever Before

Sunday, April 26, 8:41 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson ended up leading his position group in fantasy points last year, but his position atop the depth chart may be in jeopardy ahead of the 2026 season. The Rams have 2025 second-round pick Terrance Ferguson set to make a Year 2 leap, and they also spent a second-round pick on Ohio State tight end Max Klare this past Friday. All the while, veteran Tyler Higbee was brought back on a new contract. This is a very crowded tight end room, and common sense would indicate that the Rams want to get Ferguson and Klare more involved, since they're the presumptive tight ends of the future in Los Angeles. We wouldn't be surprised if Parkinson's 2026 looks similar to the first half of 2025 -- handling a decent snap share but not being heavily involved in the passing game. He was the TE67 from Week 1-9 last season, then jumped to TE4 from Week 10-18. As it stands, he ranks as the overall TE52 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings. For comparison, Ferguson is the TE25 and Klare is the TE27.

Cardinals Sign Josiah Deguara

Tuesday, May 6, 12:06 AM

The Arizona Cardinals signed free-agent tight end Josiah Deguara to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to AZCardinals.com's Zach Gershman. Deguara is heading into his sixth NFL season in 2025 after spending the 2024 campaign with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he caught all three of his targets for just 14 yards in 15 games (no starts). The former third-round pick (94th overall) by the Green Bay Packers in the 2020 NFL draft out of Cincinnati will provide tight end depth in Arizona behind starter Trey McBride and backups Tip Reiman and Elijah Higgins. Deguara won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar and will most likely spend most of his time with the Cardinals working on special teams. As a tight end, he has accumulated 50 receptions on 61 targets for 450 yards and two touchdowns in his five NFL seasons over 65 games (10 starts).
