Tyler Higbee News
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee caught four passes for 33 yards in LA's 16-19 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. His seven targets tied for the most on the team. The 30-year-old has led the Rams in targets for multiple weeks because other offensive weapons did not make an impact. Higbee ended up setting career highs for targets and receptions. It was his second-best season for receiving yards. He finished the season as the TE9 in PPR. Higbee did not have a particularly efficient season. He caught fewer than 67% of the passes thrown his way, and he thrived in games in which the Rams' offense did not do well. It is unlikely that he will top this season, but he is a strong and reliable option who has a track record of commanding TE2 volume.
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee, who missed Wednesday's practice while resting (non-injury related), was a full participant in practice on Thursday ahead of his team's Week 18 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The game doesn't have any playoff implications for LA, but the Rams would be happy to knock their division rival out of contention. If they do pull off the upset, Higbee could be essential to making that happen. The Seahawks' defense has allowed the second-most receiving yards to tight ends, the sixth-most touchdowns, and the most fantasy points. As one of the best weapons on a lackluster offense, Higbee has a low floor, having gained fewer than 20 yards in three of the past five games, but a high ceiling, with 121 yards and three touchdowns in the other two games. Higbee is a high-risk, high-reward streamer in Week 18.
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee wasn't able to carry over his momentum from Week 16 into this contest. He came into this game as questionable due to an elbow issue, but was cleared to play versus the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. The veteran tight end hauled in three of his four targets for 11 yards in the loss. This is a complete 360 after Higbee's 94-yard and two touchdown performance in Week 16. After this performance, it's hard to considering Higbee a streaming option for the regular season finale. He'll be a hit-or-miss play, so fantasy managers can deploy him at their own risk.

Everything lined up for Higbee to be a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2021. He had Matthew Stafford replacing Jared Goff as his quarterback, and longtime tight end teammate Gerald Everett took his talents to the Seattle Seahawks, so Higbee no longer had to share his playing time and targets with him. Fantasy managers were thinking he could duplicate what he did in 2019 when he racked up four consecutive 100-yard games. Instead, Higbee turned in his second straight mediocre statistical season....
