Excellent usage to end season Parkinson caught three of six targets for 14 yards in Saturday's 41-23 playoff loss to the 49ers.

Impact Parkinson's usage immediately skyrocketed when Will Dissly (knee) went down with a knee injury, as he played at 79 percent of the offensive snaps over the final two regular-season games. He also recorded 16 targets over the final three games, including the postseason. Most importantly, he ran ahead of former first-round pick Noah Fant in all three of those games. Parkinson still never posted more than 47 yards in a game all season. The Seahawks' tight end room will be tough to decipher heading into the 2023 season, as Parkinson, Fant and Dissly are all projected to be on the roster again.

Remains top tight end in Seattle Parkinson caught two of three targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime win over the Rams.

Impact Parkinson's Week 17 usage wasn't a fluke. He operated as the top tight end ahead of Noah Fant for a second straight week, as Parkinson handled 55 snaps (79 percent) while Fant clocked in at 45 snaps (64 percent). The usage is certainly intriguing, so Parkinson has a chance to be the No. 3 pass-catcher behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett in Seattle in any given week.

Operates as No. 1 tight end Parkinson caught five of six targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-6 win over the Jets.

Impact Parkinson worked as the Seahawks' clear No. 3 tight end all season behind Will Dissly and Noah Fant. Dissly since has been placed on injured reserve with a knee injury, but instead of shifting to the No. 2 role, Parkinson operated as the top TE in Week 17. Parkinson played 80 percent of the offensive snaps while Fant was targeted three times and handled a 63 percent share. It's worth monitoring this usage again Week 18, and Parkinson is worth keeping tabs on.

Increased role ahead Parkinson should handle an increased workload moving forward following news that Will Dissly (knee) was placed on injured reserve, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports...

Impact Dissly could become available later in the playoffs if the Seahawks make it, but he won't return during the regular season. Last week, Parkinson handled a season-high 30 offensive snaps and produced three catches (four targets) for 45 yards. The 2020 fourth-round pick could handle an even larger workload in Week 17 versus the Jets as the No. 2 tight end behind Noah Fant (knee).

DECEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Best performance of 2022 Parkinson caught three of four targets for 45 yards in Saturday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact With Tyler Lockett (hand) out of the lineup and Marquise Goodwin leaving briefly with a wrist injury, Parkinson handled a season-high 30 offensive snaps and finished with season highs in catches and receiving yards. Most notably, he played more snaps than veteran Will Dissly. We should expect Dissly to reclaim the No. 2 role because he's a skilled run-blocker, but this is a competition worth keeping tabs on in deeper fantasy leagues.

DECEMBER 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Two targets in Week 14 loss Parkinson hauled in one of his two targets for a 10-yard gain in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Panthers.

Impact He played 17 snaps in the Week 14 loss, finishing third behind Noah Fant (29) and Will Dissly (21) among the Seahawks' tight ends. So long as Fant and Dissly are available, Parkinson is unlikely to see enough playing time to be a reliable starting option in the majority of fantasy leagues.

DECEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No targets in loss Parkinson went without a target while playing 16 of the Seahawks' 65 snaps on offense in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.

Impact After seeing at least one target in each of the Seahawks' previous five games, Parkinson didn't draw any looks from quarterback Geno Smith, who attempted 37 passes on the day. Parkinson is behind Will Dissly and Noah Fant on the depth chart at tight end and can't be counted on to be a regular fantasy factor while the latter two options are available.

Season-high snap count Parkinson hauled in both of his targets for a total of six yards in Sunday's 31-21 win over the Cardinals.

Impact The third-year tight end logged a season-high 29 offensive snaps. Parkinson still hasn't made much of a fantasy impact this year, as he has just 12 catches for 165 yards and one touchdown through nine games.

Impact Parkinson has hauled in 10 of 11 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown through eight games this season. He has averaged 20.5 offensive snaps per game this year, as he operates as the No. 3 tight end behind Will Dissly and Noah Fant.

No targets Sunday Parkinson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 39-32 loss to the Saints.

Impact Parkinson has caught six passes for 115 yards and a touchdown through five games. The 23-year-old has averaged just 18.8 snaps per game, so until his usage increases, he'll have limited fantasy upside.
