DeVante Parker Excels On Contested Catches
4 years agoMiami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker had the second-most receiving yards last year on contested catches (400), behind only Kenny Golladay, according to Pro Football Focus. Parker's ability to make catches with defenders draped all over him helped him to a breakout season in 2019. He finished with career highs across the board in receptions (72), targets (128), receiving yards (1,202) and touchdowns (nine). Parker surprisingly finished as the No. 7 fantasy wideout last year after being a disappointment the first four seasons of his career. Miami's offense could improve in 2020 with rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa an option to take over for Ryan Fitzpatrick, too. Parker should be targeted as a WR2.
