Colby Parkinson a Safe but Unspectacular Option in Conference Championship

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.

Terrance Ferguson Won't Have Clear Path to Expanded Role

Saturday, March 7, 5:41 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson was selected with the 46th overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL draft out of Oregon. In his first NFL season, the 23-year-old only caught 11 passes on 25 targets for 231 yards and three touchdowns in 14 regular-season games (three starts) while serving primarily as the TE3 behind Tyler Higbee and Colby Parkinson. He did finish off the regular season last year with five catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets in the last two games of the regular season, but he caught just one pass for 19 yards in two playoff games to end his first year in the NFL. The Rams recently re-signed Tyler Higbee for another season, so Ferguson's path to fantasy relevance will be difficult as he enters his sophomore season in L.A. Ferguson isn't a bad dynasty stash, but in redraft leagues this fall, he'll be avoidable.
