Who Should I Start? Colby Parkinson or Tucker Kraft

Sunday, September 14, 11:33 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (shoulder) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as doubtful after missing all three practices leading up to this weekend's game. Parkinson is working his way back from an AC joint sprain that he suffered last Sunday against the Houston Texans. Parkinson was actually able to finish last week's game after receiving medical attention, but evidently, the Rams aren't going to send him onto the field for Week 2. Terrance Ferguson is active for his NFL debut and will assist in filling Parkinson's void alongside a tight end committee that also features Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen. None of these Rams tight ends can be trusted in fantasy football, but Ferguson is an intriguing stash in dynasty leagues.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) suffered a knee injury during Thursday's practice, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Rapoport noted that Kraft will undergo a full evaluation, but the team believes it is not a long-term injury. Kraft has emerged as Jordan Love's top target in the passing game with Jayden Reed (collarbone) sidelined. In Week 2, Kraft enjoyed his breakout game during their victory over the Washington Commanders as he caught six of his seven targets for 124 yards and a score. In Week 1, Kraft caught two of his four targets for 16 yards and a touchdown. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status, as he would be a significant loss for the Green Bay offense. If he were to sit out on Sunday, rookie Matthew Golden, Dontayvion Wicks, and Romeo Doubs should see a larger target share.
