Parkinson (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on the Rams' estimated injury report Wednesday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Parkinson played 53 snaps on offense during Monday night's 37-34 overtime loss to the Bills, reeling in one of two targets for three yards. The tight end was limited at each of the team's first two practices last week before logging a full session Friday, and he appears to be potentially on track to do the same thing prior to Week 6. Parkinson will have two more opportunities to officially practice before Sunday's matchup with Arizona.
Parkinson (shoulder/knee) practiced fully Friday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Coach Sean McVay told Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site on Thursday that the Rams plan to increase Parkinson's activity level as the week goes on. Indeed, Parkinson followed up a limited session with an uncapped one a day later, meaning he'll miss just one contest as a result of shoulder and knee injuries. Parkinson, Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen and Max Klare are the team's current healthy tight ends with Terrance Ferguson (ankle) on injured reserve.
Everyone sharing the ball with Colby, most valuable first.
Above the line the plan was to throw; below it, to run.
Parkinson (shoulder/knee) was limited in Thursday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
While Parkinson was limited to begin the week, coach Sean McVay said the plan is to ramp the tight end up throughout the week and have him available Monday night against the Bills, according to Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site. Parkinson missed last Sunday's win over the Eagles. With Terrance Ferguson (ankle) still sidelined, Parkinson would allow Tyler Higbee to focus on pass-catching duties at the position.

Parkinson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles due to knee and shoulder injuries, and an absence on his part would thin out a tight-end corps already without Terrance Ferguson for the next four games due to an ankle issue, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Ferguson was placed on injured reserve Friday due to the ankle sprain he suffered in the Week 3 loss to the Broncos, a game that Parkinson also missed a portion of due to his shoulder injury. Parkinson did not practice at all during Week 4 prep and has just a 3-21-0 line through three games after posting a career-best 43 catches for 408 yards and eight touchdowns over 15 regular-season contests in 2025.

Parkinson secured both of his targets for 15 yards in Monday night's 28-6 win over the Giants.
Parkinson led all Los Angeles tight ends with a 71 percent snap share, but he played mainly a blocking role while Terrance Ferguson got most of the glory as a pass catcher. Parkinson has just three grabs for 21 yards on four targets across two games to begin the season.
Parkinson caught one pass (on two targets) for six yards during the Rams' 27-7 loss to the 49ers in Week 1.
Parkinson was on the field for 47 of the Rams' 61 offensive plays (77.0 percent), which was ahead of fellow tight ends Terrance Ferguson (31 snaps), Davis Allen (21 snaps, head) and Tyler Higbee (12 snaps). However, Parkinson was unable to convert that extra playing time into offensive production, with the 2020 fourth-rounder being used more as a blocker, with Higbee leading the position group with two catches on as many targets for 12 yards. Parkinson saw an uptick in involvement in the passing game as the 2025 season progressed, but he's off to a slow start to the 2026 campaign. The Rams will make their home debut Week 2 on Monday, Sept. 21 against the Giants, whose defense ranked in the top-10 in fantasy production against tight ends in 2025.
Parkinson could take on a larger role in the Rams' passing game moving forward, as Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports that Tyler Higbee was placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to an ankle injury.
Parkinson has scored a touchdown in each of the Rams' last two games, and his involvement may continue to grow since Higbee will be sidelined for at least four weeks. Parkinson leads the team's non-Higbee tight ends with 15 catches, but Davis Allen leads that group with three touchdown receptions and Terrance Ferguson has the most yards of the group with 138.
