Analysis

Parkinson's stats took a step back from a solid Week 1 performance, but the entire Rams offense struggled with just 269 yards of total offense in the blowout. Cooper Kupp (ankle) almost certainly is going to miss time after being seen in a walking boot after the contest, which leaves Parkinson, Demarcus Robinson and Tyler Johnson as the team's leading receiving options until Kupp, Puka Nacua (knee) or Tyler Higbee (knee) return from injury.

Analysis

Parkinson signed with the Rams this past offseason to become the team's starting tight end after spending the first four years of his career with the Seahawks. The 25-year-old ceded just one target to backup Davis Allen while former starter Tyler Higbee (knee) remains on the active/PUP list with no current timetable for a potential return. Parkinson's current situation as the offensive-minded Rams' only experienced tight end puts him in a positive fantasy position for next Sunday's tilt against Arizona and potentially the first half of the regular season.
