NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting that Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker is dealing with a broken middle finger and is considered week-to-week. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Rapoport goes on to say that Parker "should be a go for the season opener," but there's no guarantee of that. Adam Gase said that Parker is unable to catch a football right now, so you have to wonder if it was a dislocated finger. Whatever the case, this is definitely concerning for Parker, who has been reportedly getting owned by up-and-coming cornerback Xavien Howard during their team scrimmages. Parker's cost was very appealing prior to this news, so you'll likely be able to snag him with a pick outside the top-100 after this news. Knowing the players going in that range, Parker still has appeal as a bench stash that can turn into an every-week starter at some point.
