Colby Parkinson Inactive Against Eagles

Sunday, October 4, 7:55 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (knee/shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Nate Atkins. Parkinson did not practice Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday and entered the weekend listed as questionable. He has caught three passes for 21 yards through the first three games of the season. Los Angeles is also without Terrance Ferguson (ankle), leaving the Rams down two tight ends against Philadelphia. Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen, and rookie Max Klare are available to handle the work at the position with Parkinson and Ferguson sidelined.

Tucker Kraft Still in Search of a Return to Form

Thursday, October 1, 9:13 AM

After opening the season with a three-catch, 65-yard performance that was good enough to make him the TE16 on the week, Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has turned in back-to-back quiet outings, and he has fallen to TE32 for the year. After an ACL tear ended his breakout 2025 campaign, Kraft came into the season with rumblings of a pitch count, but he has shown no signs of limitation in handling a 79% snap share and ranking ninth among tight ends with 17 targets. Unfortunately, his chemistry with quarterback Jordan Love has been lacking, with the two connecting on only 52.9% of those targets. Kraft's two drops in three games are already one shy of his total from a season ago, and while his 10.8 yards after catch helped make him a dominant force in 2025, that number has fallen to 5.6 yards per catch on a limited 2026 sample. While he will need to prove he still belongs in the weekly TE1 discussion, Kraft has a plus matchup against the Buccaneers in Week 4 and is RotoBaller's TE10.
