Steelers' Donald Parham: Signs with Pittsburgh
Parham signed a one-year contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday.Parham went undrafted in 2019 but caught on with the Chargers a year later and ended up starting 23 of his 47 regular-season games from 2020 to 2023. He's the tallest tight end in the league, but perhaps also the thinnest, listed at 6-foot-8, 237 pounds. The Chargers put him to use near the goal line, with Parham recording 11 TDs among his 67 career receptions. He was released in August and then spent part of the season on Denver's practice squad, never appearing in a game. Parham will turn 28 shortly before the start of the 2025 campaign and has his work cut out for him to earn a roster spot.

Donald Parham: Headed to Mile High City
Parham signed with the Broncos' practice squad Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.Parham spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Chargers, during which he accumulated 67 catches for 764 yards and 11 touchdowns across 47 regular-season games. The Broncos have Adam Trautman and Greg Dulcich as their top two tight ends on the depth chart, and Parham should have a good chance of being elevated to the active roster at some point during the regular season.

Chargers' Donald Parham: Released by Bolts
The Los Angeles Chargers released Parham on Tuesday.Parham had some hype as a fantasy breakout candidate early in his career but never progressed beyond being a part-time player and occasional red-zone weapon. Eleven of his 67 career receptions have gone for touchdowns, including a career-high four TDs on 27 catches last year. The 27-year-old may draw interest elsewhere as a pass-catching specialist.

Chargers' Donald Parham: Big performance in Week 18
Parham recorded five receptions on six targets for 83 yards in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Chiefs.Parham had been inactive for the last three games, initially due to a shoulder injury but then as a healthy scratch. However, he had plenty of opportunity with the Los Angeles Chargers' receiving corps beat up -- both Gerald Everett (knee) and Joshua Palmer (knee) left the game -- and he delivered a career-best yardage performance as a result. He accounted for three catches of more than 15 yards and proved to be one of the team's better offensive threats on the day. Parham is under contract in Los Angeles for the 2024 season, but he has a minimal cap hit, so he will likely have to compete for his roster spot.
