Who Should I Start? Colby Parkinson or Julian Hill

Saturday, January 24, 3:32 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has seen the team's third-highest target share through two playoff games, trailing only All-Pro receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. His 90 receiving yards through those two contests also rank third, but with rookie Terrance Ferguson returning for the Rams' Divisional Round victory over the Bears, and Los Angeles regularly employing two or even three tight end sets, Parkinson's fantasy ceiling is capped and largely touchdown-dependent. Given his season-long usage in the red zone, he still profiles as the safest option in a crowded tight end room, and with few elite options remaining in the playoffs, he is RotoBaller's TE2 in fantasy playoff leagues. That said, he should not be relied on for a week-winning performance against a stingy Seattle defense.

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill (ankle) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 11 injury report, meaning he'll make his return on Sunday against the Washington Commanders in Madrid, Spain. Hill will put an end to a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, but fantasy managers can continue to look elsewhere. Darren Waller (pectoral) remains on Injured Reserve, but the 25-year-old Hill will be battling for limited targets with Greg Dulcich against Washington. Before his ankle injury, Hill had only 10 catches on 13 targets for 77 yards and no touchdowns. He is still looking for his first NFL touchdown after debuting for the Dolphins in 2023. Fantasy managers desperate at the TE position should be able to find better options on the waiver wire.
