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
Wednesday, May 27, 12:59 PM
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said he is "hopeful" that tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) could be back "by training camp or during training camp," per Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. Kraft is currently recovering from the torn ACL that ended his 2025 season in Week 9. The 25-year-old looked to be on his way to a breakout season before the injury, recording 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns on 44 targets across eight games played. While Kraft hasn't been the highest-volume target-earner to this point in his career, his career average of 13.7 yards per reception is remarkably efficient for the tight end position. Additionally, Kraft could play an even larger role in the Green Bay offense in 2026 following the team's offseason subtractions of wide receivers Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks. Assuming Kraft remains on track in his recovery for the start of the 2026 season, he profiles as a steady fantasy TE1 with upside.
