DeVante Parker (knee) not expected to play in Pats' Week 1 game
New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) is not expected to play in the team's Week 1 game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
What It Means:
Parker is reportedly dealing with a knee injury, and is now trending towards missing the Patriots' season opener. If he does miss the game, the Patriots could lean heavily on JuJu Smith-Schuster and their tight ends in the passing game.
Smith-Schuster has a $5,800 salary for his Patriots debut and is projected to score 8.3 fantasy points off of 4.3 catches, 46.4 yards, and 0.3 touchdowns.
