2025 Fantasy Outlook
Parkinson was expected to take on a larger role after signing a three-year, $22.5 million contract with the Rams in the 2024 offseason, but he instead posted a modest 294 receiving yards and one touchdown, right in line with the 285 yards and two TDs he averaged in his last two seasons with Seattle. He failed to pull away from Davis Allen while Tyler Higbee was sidelined until Week 16 by a knee injury, and Higbee immediately reclaimed his role as the team’s top receiving TE once cleared to play. Higbee projects to lead the Rams’ TEs once again in 2025, and rookie second-round pick Terrance Ferguson has been added to the mix, leaving Parkinson and Allen with limited upside. Read Past Outlooks
Busts against former team
Parkinson secured two of four targets for 21 yards during Thursday's 38-37 overtime loss to the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Despite Matthew Stafford putting up monster numbers (457 yards passing and three touchdowns), Parkinson failed to make much of an impact against the team that drafted him in 2020. Terrance Ferguson earned the lone touchdown for the Rams' tight end corps in the contest, while Parkinson failed to see a target in the red zone. While the veteran tight end has touchdowns in five of his last seven games and led the trio in snap count, this game served as a reminder of Parkinson's floor. If Tyler Higbee (ankle) returns next week for the Week 17 showdown with the Falcons, this already crowded tight end room would be even more difficult to navigate for fantasy purposes.

2020
Parkinson signed a three-year, $22.5 million contract with the Rams in the offseason after spending four years in Seattle, and with Tyler Higbee expected to miss a significant portion of the 2024 season due to a torn ACL suffered in January, there's a nice opportunity for Parkinson to sit atop an NFL depth chart for the first time in his career. In each of the past two seasons, Parkinson had exactly 25 catches and two touchdowns on 34 targets, though his yardage total fell from 322 in 2022 to 247 in 2023. Higbee averaged 87.7 targets over the previous three seasons, so Parkinson should see a substantial uptick in volume even with the Rams funneling a vast majority of their touches to RB Kyren Williams and WRs Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
More targets with Higbee out?
Parkinson could take on a larger role in the Rams' passing game moving forward, as Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports that Tyler Higbee was placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to an ankle injury.
ANALYSIS
Parkinson has scored a touchdown in each of the Rams' last two games, and his involvement may continue to grow since Higbee will be sidelined for at least four weeks. Parkinson leads the team's non-Higbee tight ends with 15 catches, but Davis Allen leads that group with three touchdown receptions and Terrance Ferguson has the most yards of the group with 138.
