Who Should I Start? DeVante Parker or Christian Kirk

Monday, May 20, 8:11 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVante Parker announced his retirement on Monday evening. The 31-year-old, who signed with the Eagles in March, was once one of the NFL's most promising wideouts. He spent most of his career in Miami, where he had the best season of his career in 2019 by amassing 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns off 72 receptions. Parker spent a few more years in Miami before suiting up for the Patriots over the last two seasons. However, he was nowhere near as productive as he was in 2019, so New England released him. The 31-year-old will finish his NFL career by totaling 690 catches for 5,660 yards and 27 touchdowns.

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk (hamstring) won't play on Monday night versus the Seattle Seahawks. The wideout was limited during Friday's practice before not suiting up for Saturday's session. It's unknown how severe the injury is. However, it's not good news for a player who's struggled to stay healthy all year. Kirk has appeared in three games for the Texans this season, amassing 10 grabs (16 targets) for 109 yards. Fantasy managers will have to wait and see if he can get healthy enough to suit up against the 49ers in Week 8. In the meantime, Jayden Higgins and Xavier Hutchinson are in line to see more targets behind Nico Collins, giving both players a higher ceiling for Week 7.
