Is DeVante Parker Hurt Or Healthy?
Parker entered New England's Week 8 matchup against the New York Jets with a total of 15 receptions for 321 yards and a TD on the season. The veteran receiver was forced to exit the game against New York on New England's first offensive drive and did not return to action for the rest of the day.
Unfortunately, it looks as though Parker suffered a knee sprain in New England's Week 8 win over the division-rival Jets.
DeVante Parker Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 9
Early examinations on Parker's knee revealed a sprain. It appears likely that the Patriots receiver could miss some time, but it looks as though he's avoided a major injury that would lead to an extended absence.
An offseason acquisition for New England, Parker's production has been solid, if unspectacular, in the Pats' run-heavy offensive scheme.
With a bye week on the horizon for the Patriots in Week 10, Parker will most likely miss Week 9's upcoming matchup against the Indianapolis Colts in order to get two weeks of rest and rehab for his sprained knee. He's been a serviceable FLEX option this season and fantasy managers can afford to bench Parker as he recovers from this minor setback.
