DeVante Parker News
The Philadelphia Eagles are signing veteran wide receiver DeVante Parker to a one-year, $4.96 fully guaranteed deal. Philly will pay just $1.2 million, and New England will cover the rest. Parker was released by the Patriots this week after two seasons with the organization. Since being selected in the first round of the 2015 NFL draft, Parker has posted just one season of at least 1,000 receiving yards. He has failed to post at least 700 yards in six of his nine NFL seasons with the Miami Dolphins and Patriots. In Philadelphia behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, Parker is unlikely to be on the fantasy radar, barring injury.
The New England Patriots informed wide receiver DeVante Parker that they are releasing him on Wednesday at the start of the new league year, and he has now been given permission to talk to other teams, according to his agent, Jimmy Gould. The Patriots still have JuJu Smith-Schuster, Kendrick Bourne and Demario Douglas as their starting wideouts, but expect them to look to add receiving help in free agency and the draft. Parker, 31, had a 1,000-yard campaign (his only in the NFL) and a career-high nine touchdowns with the Miami Dolphins in 2019, but has disappointed since and caught 64 of his 102 targets for 933 yards and only three touchdowns in his two years in New England. The nine-year veteran can still offer a big-bodied downfield threat, but he's unlikely to become an interesting fantasy wideout, even though he's likely to land in a better situation in free agency.
New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker caught just one of four targets for six yards during Sunday's loss to the New York Jets. His offensive struggles were the product of steady snow and wind that impacted the unit as a whole. Parker finishes the 2023 campaign with 33 catches, 394 receiving yards, and zero touchdowns. The veteran is under contract with New England for next season, but they could choose to move on from him if the coaching staff or front office endure sweeping changes.
