Tyler Higbee Fantasy

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee had been quiet in recent weeks, but he showed some life in the Week 7 win over the Detroit Lions. Higbee caught five of his eight targets for 46 yards on the day. He had a couple of balls that were just off that could have given him an even better day. Higbee has now seen five or more targets in five out of seven games, and he's gone for at least 30 receiving yards in five out of seven games as well. The main thing holding Higbee back remains his lack of touchdowns, with just two scored through seven games. With the amount of weapons in this offense, that's to be expected. He remains a valuable TE2 due to his offense's ability to put up points, but he won't enter the TE1 category on a weekly basis unless he finds the end zone.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has been fading over the last few weeks, and he remains a TE2 option in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions. There are multiple fantasy tight ends that are out this week on bye, and that bumps up the viability of Higbee. Higbee has seen at least five targets in four out of six games this season, and he's recorded at least 36 receiving yards in those same games as well. The Lions allow an average of 10.5 fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, and with Higbee playing nearly all of the tight end snaps for the Rams, he has some playability this week.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee saw five targets in Week 6, but he wasn't able to do much with them against the New York Giants. Higbee caught all five of his targets on the day, and he was second on the team with 36 yards. That's just not a great fantasy day. Higbee is really showing as the season goes on that he needs a touchdown to be viable for fantasy managers as a TE1. He is fourth on the team in targets, and despite dominating the touches and snaps at tight end, he isn't turning that into fantasy value most weeks. You can continue to play Higbee and hope he finds the end zone, but he's far from a locked-in starter with the way he has been playing.
