DeVante Parker Calls It Quits

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.

Darius Slayton News

Darius Slayton Presented with Opportunity to Make a Big Impact in Week 4

Saturday, October 3, 11:50 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Darius Slayton will make his team debut on Sunday, and he could immediately step into an elevated role. Slayton was originally signed to take the roster spot of Alec Pierce (heel) on injured reserve, but he hasn't earned an offensive snap yet. That should change in Week 4, as the Colts will be without both Pierce and Keenan Allen (groin). There's a reasonable path for Slayton to occupy the No. 2 role on the depth chart behind Josh Downs. The jury is still out on whether the Colts' offense can support two fantasy-relevant receivers at once, but we'd feel decent about his outlook against the Washington Commanders if he does indeed operate as the No. 2 receiver behind Downs. This is certainly a very enticing matchup for Slayton; entering Week 4, the Commanders had allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2026. Managers who are in deeper leagues and need a WR3/flex replacement should consider streaming Slayton this week.
