This year had not been DeVante Parker's year -- until Week 8, that is. After spending the first half of the season in various states of injury, Parker finally saw extended play due to a slew of injuries to the Miami Dolphins' receiving corps.

Despite struggling to live up to expectations in his first few years in the league, Parker showed up to play against the Houston Texans. He operated as Miami's clear top receiver, leading the team in targets (9), receptions (6) and receiving yards (134) while posting a dominant 32% market share of the team's air yards.

Parker played 100% of the team's snaps, and we should expect that to continue going forward given the injuries to Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson. He should be the clear top weapon in Miami's passing game for at least as long as Stills remains sidelined.
