BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 6% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: After a rough week for the tight end position, Los Angeles Rams playmaker Colby Parkinson will find himself as a popular waiver wire add heading into Week 2. Parkinson made his team debut in Week 1 against the Detroit Lions and caught four passes for 47 yards in the contest. His five targets also ranked third on the team.
With Puka Nacua (knee) being placed on injured reserve on Monday, Parkinson could be in line to see a few extra targets per game moving forward. That makes him a solid add in most 12-plus team leagues and some 10-team leagues.
colby parkinson led all tight ends this week with 42 routes run. drew 5 targets, 4 catches for 47 yards (including three first downs). snap rate is great (87%), but 10% target rate will need to go up to make him a real factor

The tight end position suffered some injuries this past week with David Njoku (ankle) and Jake Ferguson (knee) likely missing multiple weeks. So, fantasy managers might need to look to the waiver wire to find a replacement. Parkinson is a great tight end to target heading into Week 2, considering Nacua's injury and the fact that he is in a pass-heavy offense in Los Angeles.
