  • To be top TE again

    Higbee will be the Rams' leading tight end Sunday against the Seahawks with Gerald Everett (knee) sidelined again, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: In Everett's first absence Week 13 at Arizona, Higbee earned 91 percent of the offensive snaps and put up the first 100-yard game of his four-year career. The performance wasn't surprising, as it occurred versus a Cardinals defense that has been torched by tight ends this season. While the Seahawks aren't as porous, they still have yielded a 77-802-6 line to the position through 12 games, making Higbee a decent enough roll of the dice.

  • Takes advantage of elevated role

    Higbee hauled in seven of his eight targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 13 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Higbee saw an increased role due to the absence of Gerald Everett (knee) and also took advantage of a positive matchup. The end result was a career-best performance in both yards and receptions, highlighted by a two-yard touchdown grab. However, he also displayed a consistent ability to work downfield, recording gains of 26, 25 and 21 yards. It remains unclear how long Everett will be absent, but Higbee could sustain an increased role against the Seahawks in Week 14.

  • Should lead way at tight end Sunday

    Higbee is expected to operate as the Rams' clear No. 1 tight end Sunday against the Cardinals with Gerald Everett (knee) ruled out for the contest, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Everett tweaked his knee on a blocking assignment in the Rams' blowout loss to the Ravens on Monday Night Football and won't be ready to return to action on the short week. Even before Everett's injury surfaced, Higbee had seemingly usurped him as Los Angeles' top tight end, at least in terms of overall usage. Higbee had already played 70 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps the past two weeks, but he should push that rate higher in Week 13 with the No. 3 option on the depth chart, Johnny…read more

  • Targeted frequently in loss

    Higbee caught five of six targets for 20 yards during Monday's 45-6 loss to Baltimore.

    Analysis: The five receptions were a season high for Higbee, but with just 20 yards to show for his busy evening, his impact was limited. The fourth-year tight end has been held to just 10 receptions for 58 yards through the past five weeks, and the Los Angeles offense has only scored 35 points over its past three games, so it's unlikely Higbee morphs into a reliable fantasy option over the final weeks of the season.

  • No targets in win

    Higbee wasn't targeted in Sunday's 17-7 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Higbee shook off a knee injury to suit up for the contest, and he logged a season-high 76 percent snap share. The fourth-year tight end has run a route on 68.1 percent of his snaps this season, but the production hasn't followed with just 21 catches for 192 yards and a score over nine contests.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Higbee (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bears, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: Higbee managed just one limited listing on the Week 11 injury report, the result of a knee issue. Still, like fellow tight end Gerald Everett (wrist), Higbee was expected to gut it and be available Sunday. The Rams may turn to Everett and Higbee more often than normal with Brandin Cooks (concussion) and Robert Woods (undisclosed) unavailable Sunday.

  • Questionable for Week 11

    Higbee (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

    Analysis: Higbee practiced for the first time this week Friday, but coach Sean McVay expressed optimism the tight end will be ready to play come Sunday. The 26-year-old has yet to total 50 receiving yards in any game this season.

  • No practice again Thursday

    Higbee (knee) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Higbee hasn't put himself in a good position to be available Sunday versus the Bears with no practice to date this week. Having said that, coach Sean McVay told Cameron DaSilva of USA Today that he expects Higbee and Gerald Everett (wrist) to suit up. Friday's injury report will have the final word on both tight end's potential to play.

  • Expected to suit up Sunday

    Coach Sean McVay expects Higbee (knee) to play Sunday versus the Bears, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: McVay's sentiment extends to fellow tight end Gerald Everett (wrist). Higbee himself was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, so he'll seek to increase his reps Thursday and/or Friday in order to back up McVay's statement.

  • Sits out practice with knee injury

    Higbee didn't practice Wednesday due to a knee injury, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Over the last six games, fellow tight end Gerald Everett has put together a 28-322-2 line on 49 targets. Meanwhile, Higbee has been contained to 15 receptions (on 19 targets) for 151 yards and no scores during that span. He's now the less healthy of the two as well -- Everett was limited by a wrist issue Wednesday -- further hindering Higbee's prospects.

  • Fails to move needle again

    Higbee caught three of his four targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 17-12 loss to Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Higbee's now up to a pedestrian 21 receptions for 192 yards and a touchdown on the season, and this was the seventh consecutive game that he's failed to make a meaningful fantasy impact. Gerald Everett's emergence as a pass-catching tight end limits Higbee's potential moving forward, too.

  • Another uneventful Sunday

    Higbee caught his only target for eight yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over Cincinnati.

    Analysis: Higbee started against the Bengals and played 34 of 62 offensive snaps. He's now been held to an eight-yard reception in consecutive games and hasn't made a notable fantasy impact since finding the end zone in Week 1 against Carolina.

  • Just one target in win

    Higbee caught his only target for eight yards during Sunday's 37-10 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: The fourth-year Ram started against the Falcons, but he's clearly fallen well behind Gerald Everett as the No. 1 tight end option in the passing game. Everett received 10 targets Sunday, after all. As a result, Higbee's fantasy value projects to remain low, and he's difficult to start in the majority of fantasy settings.

  • Another uneventful showing

    Higbee caught all three of his targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 20-7 loss to San Francisco.

    Analysis: The fourth-year tight end started and played 30 of 53 offensive snaps, which was two more than Gerald Everett. Still, Higbee hasn't made a meaningful fantasy dent since finding the end zone in Week 1, so he remains a tough start in most formats.

  • Trio of grabs in close loss

    Higbee secured all three targets for 47 yards in the Rams' 30-29 loss to the Seahawks on Thursday.

    Analysis: Higbee saw fellow tight end Gerald Everett pace the Rams with a career-high 136 receiving yards Thursday, a performance that underscored what appears to be a widening gulf in the roles of the two players. Higbee has a respectable 10 targets over the last two games, but those have been parlayed into a modest seven receptions for 88 yards. Meanwhile, Everett has logged 19 looks over the same span, turning those into 12 catches, 180 yards and a touchdown. It remains to be seen if Higbee continues…read more

  • Busy in return

    Higbee caught four of seven targets for 41 yards during Sunday's 55-40 loss to Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: After missing Week 3 with a chest injury, Higbee started against the Bucs and played 44 of 98 offensive snaps. He also took the field seven times on special teams, and his seven targets more than doubled his six through the first two games of the season. The veteran did play less than fellow tight end Gerald Everett (56 offensive snaps), but it appears Higbee is healthy after being inactive last week. He still shouldn't be relied on in the majority of fantasy settings, though.

  • Availability confirmed

    Higbee (chest) is available for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Higbee upgraded to full practice participation Thursday and made it through Friday without any setbacks. He'll presumably jump back into a timeshare at tight end with Gerald Everett.

  • Readying to return Sunday

    Coach Sean McVay said Thursday Higbee (chest) is on pace to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: Higbee backed up McVay's sentiment by practicing in full Thursday, according to Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com. Through parts of two games this season, Higbee has hauled in six of eight targets for 41 yards and one touchdown.

  • Puts in some work Wednesday

    Higbee (chest) was listed as limited on the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After being diagnosed with a lung issue following a Week 2 win against the Saints, Higbee didn't practice at all last week and sat out Sunday's contest at Cleveland. Coach Sean McVay said he's "hopeful and optimistic" the 26-year-old will be ready to go for Week 4.

  • Won't play in Cleveland

    Higbee (chest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Cleveland.

    Analysis: Higbee suffered a lung injury during last week's win over the Saints. His absence frees up more snaps for timeshare partner Gerald Everett, though the Rams might also use four-wide formations with Josh Reynolds, or even give some snaps to No. 3 tight end Johnny Mundt. Either way, the offense figures to revolve around Todd Gurley, Brandin Cooks, Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods.

  • Looking uncertain for Sunday

    Higbee (chest) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Vincent Bonsignore of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Higbee having sat out the Rams' first two practices of the week, Bonsignore speculates that the tight end's status for Sunday's contest against the Browns could come down to a game-time call. The Rams will see what Higbee is able to do during their final practice session Friday before offering an update on his outlook for Week 3.

  • No practice Wednesday

    Coach Sean McVay said Higbee (chest) won't practice Wednesday, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: Higbee left Sunday's game versus the Saints with what initially was termed a chest injury, but an ensuing visit to the hospital determined that an injured lung was the reason that he was coughing up blood. His absence from the first Week 3 session isn't a great sign for his immediate availability, but he'll have a pair of chances Thursday and Friday to show whether an appearance is possible Sunday at Cleveland.

  • Lung issue

    Higbee could miss time with a lung issue, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Higbee's exit from Sunday's game against the Saints was initially attributed to a chest injury, but after he was brought to the hospital as a precaution, it was determined he injured his lung. Though the report notes that the issue caused the tight end to cough up blood, Higbee's absence is not expected to be a long one. For any length of time he misses, Gerald Everett would be in line for added snaps.

  • Ruled out with chest injury

    Higbee has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Saints due to a chest injury, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Higbee will emerge from Week 2 with two catches (on three targets) for 21 yards. Considering the Rams didn't leave any wiggle room for the tight end to reenter the contest, his status will be one to watch in the coming days. Gerald Everett is the only active tight end for the rest of this game, while Johnny Mundt was deemed inactive.

  • Scores game-winning TD

    Higbee caught four of five targets for 20 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 30-27 win over Carolina.

    Analysis: Recently signed to a four-year contract extension, it didn't take long for Higbee to reward the franchise for their confidence in him. The fourth-year tight end has never been a strong fantasy asset, and he's been utilized primarily as a blocker to this point in his career. Additionally, Gerald Everett is arguably the more capable receiving tight end on the roster, so Higbee's targets are likely to remain minimal. It's worth noting that Los Angeles discussed utilizing more two-tight end sets…read more

  • Signing extension

    Higbee has reached agreement on a four-year extension with the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Primarily used as a blocker, Higbee caught 24 passes as a 16-game starter last season. There's been some question about his ability to maintain the larger portion of a timeshare with Gerald Everett, but it's at least now clear that the Rams view Higbee as part of their long-term plan. The team starts its season with a Week 1 road game against the Panthers.

  • Could lose starting job

    Higbee is facing increased competition for the starting tight-end job from Gerald Everett, who appeared much improved during the offseason program, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Rams have favored Higbee's blocking over Everett's receiving ability in the past, but it may be a different story now that the latter is becoming increasingly comfortable as a blocker. There's also the matter of Cooper Kupp (knee) not being a lock to play in Week 1, which could inspire coach Sean McVay to place a greater emphasis on throwing to his tight ends. Of course, the same scenario also would encourage increased use of two-tight-end formations, something the Rams started to do after…read more

  • Not targeted in Super Bowl

    Higbee didn't draw any targets during a 13-3 loss to New England in the Super Bowl.

    Analysis: While he technically got the start, Higbee played fewer snaps (35) than fellow tight end Gerald Everett (44), who also finished the night without any catches. The Rams increased their usage of tight ends in the passing game after Cooper Kupp suffered a torn ACL in November, but neither Higbee nor Everett proved to be a reliable threat. Higbee figures to enter the final year of his rookie contract stuck in a timeshare, potentially losing even more work to Everett in 2019. If forced to pick…read more

  • Comes up big with game on line

    Higbee caught each of his four targets for 25 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 win over New Orleans in the NFC Championship Game.

    Analysis: Despite playing just 39 snaps to Gerald Everett's 47, the third-year tight end had a massive impact on the outcome of Sunday's contest, hitting pay dirt from one yard out in the third quarter and later catching two passes on the game-winning drive in overtime. Higbee managed just seven catches for 94 yards in five games during December, but he did enjoy a productive stretch the previous month and has now bounced back strong with six receptions in two playoff games. Higbee and Everett figure to…read more

  • Makes season-long grab

    Higbee secured his only target for a season-long, 36-yard reception during Sunday's 48-32 win over San Francisco.

    Analysis: Despite starting Sunday's game, Higbee played fewer snaps than fellow tight end Gerald Everett for the second consecutive week. There appears to be a changing of the guard at the position with Everett carving out a larger and more consistent role in the passing attack over the second half of the season. However, Higbee's blocking prowess will keep him on the field, and he is a capable receiver. It's just unlikely he makes a significant fantasy splash in the postseason.

  • Grabs one reception against Cards

    Higbee caught his lone target for 16 yards during Sunday's 31-9 win over Arizona.

    Analysis: The tight end's reception came in the first quarter and set up a Robert Woods rushing touchdown on the following play. Higbee has started all 15 games and has garnered 695 offensive snaps this season, but that extensive usage has yielded only 33 targets on 216 receiving routes. While he's flashed potential in the passing game, fellow tight end Gerald Everett has clearly been the preferred target, and Everett has been particularly strong of late with 14 receptions for 103 yards over the past…read more

  • Disappearing act continues

    Higbee caught both his targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 30-23 loss to Philadelphia.

    Analysis: After a four-game stretch where Higbee turned 18 targets into 13 receptions for 147 yards and a touchdown, he's now caught just three passes for 23 yards the past two weeks. Instead, it's been fellow tight end Gerald Everett -- nine receptions for 75 yards -- who has been more involved the past two games. With Everett clearly distancing himself in the passing-attack pecking order, it's difficult to trust Higbee in any fantasy setting heading into Week 16.

  • Sees little work in passing game

    Higbee caught his only target for nine yards during Sunday's 15-6 loss to Chicago.

    Analysis: Now two outings removed from a respectable three-game stretch consisting of 11 receptions for 128 yards and a score, there's little to be excited about with Higbee's fantasy outlook moving forward. His 27 offensive snaps were also fewer than fellow tight end Gerald Everett's 36, and Everett is the superior receiving threat.

  • Two catches in Motor City

    Higbee caught two of three targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 30-16 win over Detroit.

    Analysis: This was a disappointing showing from Higbee. He had put together a respectable three-game stretch with 11 receptions for 128 yards and a score entering Los Angeles' Week 12 bye. He did play 47 of 69 offensive snaps, which was almost twice as many as fellow tight end Gerald Everett, but it's still difficult to view Higbee as a reliable fantasy asset in most settings.

  • Tallies season-high 63 yards

    Higbee caught six of seven targets for 63 yards during Monday's 54-51 win over Kansas City.

    Analysis: With Cooper Kupp (knee) out for the season, Higbee has been more involved in the passing game of late. The tight end has hauled in 11 of 14 targets for 128 yards and a score over the past three weeks and projects to continue chipping in modest totals following Los Angeles' Week 12 bye. However, even though Higbee continues to play more offensive snaps than fellow tight end Gerald Everett (59 to 23 this week), Everett is proving to be the better vertical weapon.

  • Finds end zone against Seahawks

    Higbee caught all three of his targets for 25 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 36-31 win over Seattle. He also played 50 of 65 offensive snaps.

    Analysis: The second-year starter has been more involved in the passing attack of late with six receptions for 71 yards and a score over the past three weeks. Obviously, those aren't standout fantasy marks, and Higbee's upside likely will remain capped. Still, wide receiver Cooper Kupp (knee) has been ruled out for the year, so there's potential for the tight end to see his role in the offense grow down the stretch.

  • Hauls in two passes for 40 yards

    Higbee caught two of four targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 45-35 loss to New Orleans.

    Analysis: The 40 receiving yards stand as a season high for Higbee, and he once again played more offensive snaps (42) than Gerald Everett (18). The third-year tight end also showed impressive athleticism on his 33-yard reception in the first quarter. Still, without increased involvement in the offense, Higbee's an unreliable asset in most fantasy setups.
