Colby Parkinson News
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.

Tucker Kraft News
Tuesday, May 5, 10:20 AM
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said on Sirius XM NFL Radio that tight end Tucker Kraft's (knee) rehab from a torn right ACL is "going great," and he's expected to return "early in the season." Kraft was on his way to a career breakout in 2025 before tearing his ACL, catching 32 of his 44 targets for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight starts. Gutekunst said in mid-January that the 25-year-old was ahead of schedule in his recovery, so barring a setback during training camp this summer, it's safe to assume that he'll be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season. Kraft is entering the final year of his rookie deal, but the Packers have already engaged him in talks on a potential long-term extension. Despite tearing his ACL in 2025, Kraft is expected to be a big part of Green Bay's offense again this year, making him an easy top-10 fantasy TE. Right now, RotoBaller has Kraft as the No. 6 overall player at his position.
