Doubtful to face Ravens
Higbee (neck) is doubtful for Sunday's game at Baltimore, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official website reports.
Analysis: Higbee was forced out of last Sunday's win over the Browns and diagnosed with a neck stinger. He hasn't been practicing this week and now figures to be replaced by some combination of Hunter Long, Davis Allen and Brycen Hopkins. The best bet for playing time and targets would seem to be Long, who took 33 percent of snaps last week while Allen got only two percent and Hopkins was a healthy scratch.

Remains sidelined at practice
Higbee (neck) didn't practice Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Higbee continues to be sidelined during Week 14 prep due to the neck stinger that he sustained this past Sunday against the Browns. He'll thus have just one more chance to mix into drills this week before the Rams potentially make a ruling on his status ahead of Sunday's game at Baltimore.

Sits out Wednesday's walkthrough
Higbee (neck) was a non-participant Wednesday's walk-through session, Bridget Condon of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Higbee had a concussion check this past Sunday against the Browns, and while he wasn't placed in the protocol, he instead came out of the game with a neck stinger. With an absence under his belt to begin Week 14 prep, he has only two more chances to mix into drills this week before the Rams potentially make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's contest at Baltimore.

Avoids concussion, but has stinger
Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Higbee cleared the concussion protocol but was diagnosed with a neck stinger following Sunday's 36-19 win versus the Browns, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Higbee was forced out late in Sunday's game and deemed questionable to return at the time with a potential concussion. He may endure some limitations in practice this week as the Rams prep for Sunday's game in Baltimore.

Exits Sunday's game
Higbee, who is being evaluated for a concussion, is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns.
Analysis: Before his departure from the contest, Higbee caught two of his four targets for 35 yards. With Brycen Hopkins inactive, Davis Allen and Hunter Long are the Rams' available TE options versus Cleveland.

Rare two-score day Sunday
Higbee brought in all five targets for 29 yards and two touchdowns in the Rams' 37-14 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end got into the end zone for the first time since Week 16 of last season when he recorded a seven-yard grab to cap off the opening possession of the contest, and he followed it with a five-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter. Higbee's catch total also tied his season high and particularly stood out in light of him having recorded a meager 1-17 line on four targets over the previous pair of contests. Next up for Higbee and the Rams is a Week 13 home matchup against…read more

Active Sunday, per usual
Higbee is listed as active Sunday at Arizona, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Initially, the Rams included Higbee on their list of Week 12 inactives, but there was a mistake in submitting them, and instead defensive end Earnest Brown will be a healthy scratch. Higbee thus will handle his customary role as the team's top tight end, which so far has yielded a cumulative 27-303-0 line on 46 targets in 10 games while logging at least 86 percent of the offensive snaps on a weekly basis.

Disappoints with just one catch
Higbee secured one of three targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 17-16 victory against the Seahawks.
Analysis: The veteran's only catch came during a key touchdown drive in the fourth quarter that helped the Rams rally from a nine-point deficit to steal a victory from Seattle. Higbee's numbers since the first month of the season have been anemic outside of a five-catch performance in Week 8 against the Cowboys, with just 11 catches for 107 yards in his last six games. Cooper Kupp (ankle) left the game with an injury, however, and Higbee produced a 16-196-0 line in the four games Kupp missed at the start…read more

Held without a catch
Higbee failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Despite playing a typical 91 percent of the snaps on offense, the veteran tight end saw a season-low one target and failed to make a catch for the first time since Week 12 in 2022. Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reported after Sunday's game that coach Sean McVay said that Higbee has been "fighting through a lot of stuff, and is playing with something that restricts his hand on his right thumb." Higbee also appeared to injure his left hand during the game, which could help explain the steep…read more

Bounces back with five catches
Higbee caught five of seven targets for 45 yards during Sunday's 43-20 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The 20-yard catch by Higbee on the Rams' first drive actually tied or eclipsed his receiving total in any of his last three contests, and the veteran accumulated the most yards, targets and receptions in any game since Week 4. Rams wideouts struggled against a stout Cowboys defense, leaving Higbee and running back Darrell Henderson to lead the team in receiving yardage. Notably, Higbee was on the receiving end of two of backup Brett Rypien's 10 passes after Matthew Stafford left with a thumb…read more

Does little with three targets
Higbee secured one of three targets for seven yards during Sunday' 24-17 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: For the third straight game, the veteran tight end saw three targets from Matthew Stafford but produced a season-low one catch and seven yards from them. Higbee was actually third on the team in targets behind Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, a small glimmer of hope in an otherwise dreadful outing. Through seven contests, Higbee has posted a 21-241-0 line and is on pace to finish the season with 51 catches, which would be his lowest total since 2020. He'll try to turn things around Week 8 against a…read more

Disappoints with two catches
Higbee secured two of three targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 26-9 victory against the Cardinals.
Analysis: The veteran tight end's day was defined by a big drop instead of the two catches he did make. A third-down pass from Matthew Stafford bounced just off of Higbee's fingertips, which turned what would've been a six-yard touchdown into a 25-yard field goal from Brett Maher. Through two games since Cooper Kupp's return to the lineup, Higbee has just six targets and four catches for 38 yards, and the lack of volume makes it difficult to trust him in fantasy lineups while Kupp and rookie Puka Nacua…read more

Season-low two catches
Higbee secured two of three targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 23-14 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Higbee, along with Tutu Atwell, seemed to be most affected by the return of Cooper Kupp, as they both saw their number of targets drop precipitously from previous weeks. While the veteran tight end was still able to produce consistent results in years past alongside the superstar wide receiver, the emergence of rookie sensation Puka Nacua gives Matthew Stafford two big options to deluge with targets instead of just Kupp. Higbee is still the unquestioned starter at tight end for the Rams with…read more

Sidesteps injury report
Higbee (thumb) wasn't listed on Wednesday's practice report, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Higbee's reps were managed last week due to a listed Achilles injury, but he was able to handle a typical 94 percent snap share this past Sunday at Indianapolis on his way to gathering in five of 11 targets for 64 yards. Head coach Sean McVay told Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site Monday that Higbee "got his thumb banged up a little bit" in that contest, but the injury wasn't significant to keep the tight end off the field as Los Angeles kicked off Week 5 prep Wednesday. Higbee looks like…read more

Tending to thumb injury
Coach Sean McVay said Monday that Higbee "got his thumb banged up a little bit" during Sunday's overtime victory at Indianapolis, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Analysis: After a week in which he tended to an Achilles injury and also signed a three-year extension, Higbee didn't look worse for wear Sunday, gathering in five of 11 targets for 64 yards and no touchdowns while playing 94 percent of the offensive snaps. It'll be interesting to see how the Rams list the tight end on their first Week 5 injury report Wednesday, but the aforementioned workload implies he's still good for his typical workload on game days.

Paces team in targets
Higbee (Achilles) secured five of 11 targets for 64 yards during Sunday's 29-23 overtime win against the Colts.
Analysis: Despite landing on the injury report early in the week with a dreaded Achilles injury, a freshly-extended Higbee showed no signs of a slowdown as he was peppered with targets from Matthew Stafford all game long. The only thing missing from the veteran tight end's resume this season is a touchdown, but Higbee hasn't seen the end zone much through his career (20 career touchdowns in 114 career games). With Cooper Kupp (hamstring) likely back soon, Higbee will likely find himself as more of a…read more

Higbee (Achilles) is listed as active Sunday in Indianapolis, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: Fresh off a season-high 71 yards on five targets last Monday at Cincinnati, Higbee wasn't able to practice until Friday's limited session due to an Achilles injury. In the midst of it all, he and the Rams agreed to a three-year, $27 million extension Friday, but his status for Week 4 remained in question until Sunday morning. With his availability now confirmed, Higbee will aim to uphold the recent investment made in him against a Colts defense that has conceded the 10th-most yards per target…read more

Likely to play vs. Colts
Higbee (Achilles) is expected to play Sunday against the Colts, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Higbee barely practiced this week due to the Achilles injury and is listed as questionable, but the veteran tight end looks poised to avoid the Rams' inactive list, which will be released 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff. The 30-year-old received some long-term security Friday, in the form of a three-year deal worth a guaranteed $17 million. Higbee has yet make much of an imprint in the box score this season, catching 11 passes for 132 scoreless yards.

Questionable for Week 4
Higbee (Achilles) will practice Friday as a limited participant and will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Analysis: Head coach Sean McVay revealed Higbee's Week 4 game status Friday just a few minutes after the team announced that the tight end agreed to a three-year contract extension that guarantees him $17 million. The new contract and the questionable designation are both strong hints that Higbee isn't expected to miss much time with the Achilles issue, if any, and it also means he'll likely be back with the Rams in 2024 even if they dive into a rebuild. If Higbee can't play this week, Brycen Hopkins…read more

Lands three-year extension
Higbee (Achilles) agreed to a three-year, $27 million contract extension with the Rams on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Higbee is one of the Rams' three remaining starters from the Jeff Fisher era and previously was scheduled for free agency this coming spring. A top-heavy roster with an older quarterback means talk of a rebuild may spark up again this offseason if the current season doesn't go well for the Rams, but Higbee now looks to be part of the franchise's future even if that happens. While he's never come close to matching his torrid finish to the 2019 season -- 522 yards on 56 targets the final five…read more

Sits out another practice
Higbee (Achilles) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Higbee has kicked off Week 4 prep with consecutive absences from practice due to an Achilles injury. With just one more chance to practice this week, another absence may spur the Rams to rule him out ahead of Sunday's game at Indianapolis. If Higbee is limited or sidelined this weekend, Brycen Hopkins, Davis Allen and potentially practice-squad member Nikola Kalinic could be bigger parts of the Rams offense.

Tending to Achilles injury
Higbee was a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through session due to an Achilles injury.
Analysis: The Rams' passing attack has been dominated by rookie fifth-round pick Puka Nacua (oblique) with Cooper Kupp (hamstring) on injured reserve to start the season, but Higbee has been a nice complementary piece with two games of 40-plus yards, including 71 during Monday's loss in Cincinnati. Unfortunately for Higbee, he's tending to an Achilles injury, which could put him at risk of missing Sunday's game at Indianapolis.

Season-high 71 yards in loss
Higbee secured all five of his targets for 71 yards during Monday's 19-16 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Higbee acted as Matthew Stafford's safety valve with a pair of the Rams' offensive linemen going down with injury during the contest, and the veteran tight end responded with his best performance of the season. Four of Higbee's five receptions led to Rams' first downs, and he was just one yard behind rookie sensation Puka Nacua for the team lead in receiving yards. The Colts lie in wait Week 4, but in their last meeting in 2021, Indianapolis managed to hold Higbee to just a single reception for…read more

Minimal impact in loss
Higbee secured three of seven targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 30-23 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Despite the generous amount of targets the veteran received, Higbee was unable to do much with them, with his largest gain going for just six yards. It was encouraging, however, to see the Rams' stalwart tight end still have seven targets with Puka Nacua (20 targets), Tutu Atwell (nine targets) and Kyren Williams (10 targets) all earning massive chunks of Matthew Stafford's attention as well. Higbee will look to be more productive Week 3 against a Bengals defense that just allowed Mark Andrews…read more

Three catches in win
Higbee secured all three of his targets for 49 yards during Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: It was a slightly down night for the Rams' veteran tight end in terms of usage, with just three of Matthew Stafford's 37 total passes aimed Higbee's way, but he made the most of his limited touches with a sweet double move for a 30-yard reception in the third quarter. Fantasy managers hoping for Higbee to be more involved with Cooper Kupp (hamstring) absent may be disappointed with the volume, and the emergence of Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell may have been a factor in the reduced target share.…read more

Sets multiple career highs in 2022

Analysis: Higbee finishes the 2022 season with career highs in targets (108), catches (72) and receiving yards (620) but not touchdowns (three). The tight end turned 30 on New Years Day, and he's under contract with the Rams through 2023.

Three catches in Week 17 loss
Higbee (elbow) brought in three of four targets for 11 yards in the Rams' 31-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Analysis: Higbee tied Van Jefferson for the team lead in receptions, but as his final line indicates, that didn't amount to much on a day when Baker Mayfield netted only 111 passing yards. The veteran tight end didn't come close to matching his standout 9-94-2 line on 11 targets Christmas Day versus the Broncos that may have propelled some fantasy managers into their leagues' title games, but he'll have a chance to redeem himself in the Week 18 finale on the road versus a Seahawks defense that's given up…read more

Suits up Sunday
Higbee (elbow) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Higbee was deemed questionable for the contest after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday, but the Rams' top tight end will give it a go versus the Chargers. Assuming no in-game setbacks, Higbee will look to build off the momentum he's built over his last two outings while working with signal-caller Baker Mayfield en route to hauling in 13 of his 16 targets for 121 yards and three touchdowns in that span.

Monster performance in win
Higbee produced nine receptions on 11 targets for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 51-14 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Higbee followed up his first touchdown of the season last week with a two-score effort in Week 16. The veteran tight end has quickly developed a strong rapport with new starting quarterback Baker Mayfield, combining for 121 yards and three scores in the two games the latter has started. With the Rams lacking playmakers on the outside, Higbee should continue to be a focal point of the passing attack against the Chargers on Sunday.

Finds end zone in loss
Higbee secured four of five targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 24-12 loss to the Packers on Monday night.
Analysis: Higbee closed out the scoring on the night with an eight-yard touchdown grab with 22 seconds remaining in the third quarter. The veteran tight end's catch and target totals both led the Rams during the loss, and his trip to the end zone was his first of the season. Higbee will aim to carry over his chemistry with new quarterback Baker Mayfield and record a fourth straight game with multiple receptions when the Rams host the Broncos in a Week 16 matchup on Christmas Day.

The veteran tight end has been mired in a slump for three consecutive contests now, posting a 4-25-0 receiving line over that span.

Fails to bounce back
Higbee secured two of five targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Aside from two short gains during the Rams' final scoring drive, Higbee's biggest contribution was securing a John Wolford fumble, which allowed Matt Gay to boot a 54-yard field goal to make it a one-point game at the half. The Seahawks presented Higbee with a chance to return to prominence after the veteran tight end put up a zero on the stat sheet in Week 12 against Kansas City, but instead, the Rams struggled to get anything going in the air at all.

Not targeted in Week 12
Higbee (knee) wasn't targeted in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Higbee played a season-low 59 percent of offensive snaps while playing through a knee injury after topping 90 percent in six of the previous 10 games. The lingering effects of the injury coupled with Bryce Perkins' lack of passing production (100 yards) led to a quiet afternoon for Higbee.

Analysis: One day removed from sitting out due to a knee issue, Higbee got in some work Thursday in what was termed a jog-through. Friday's practice report could clear up his status for Sunday's game in Kansas City entirely, but if not a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff won't leave many viable tight ends to turn to. Currently, Brycen Hopkins is the only other player at the position on the Rams' active roster.

This past Sunday at New Orleans, he rang in at 92 percent on his way to four catches (on eight targets) for 45 yards.

Higbee brought in four of eight targets for 45 yards in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end tied for the team lead in receptions with Allen Robinson on what appeared to be a potentially big day in the making for the Rams passing attack before Matthew Stafford was forced back into concussion protocol. Higbee figures to remain busy no matter who's under center for Los Angeles in a Week 12 road battle against the Chiefs considering his elevated role in the absence of Cooper Kupp (ankle) for what could be the rest of the season.

Leading receiver in loss
Higbee caught all eight of his targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: With John Wolford getting the start in place of Matthew Stafford (concussion), Higbee produced his best numbers since he racked up 10 catches in Week 4 and led the Rams in receptions and receiving yards. An Arizona defense that's been vulnerable to tight ends all season was likely a large factor in Higbee's performance, but if Cooper Kupp (ankle) winds up missing more time after exiting Sunday's game in the fourth quarter, he could see a bigger role in the passing game again in Week 11 against…read more

Invisible in defeat
Higbee failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: After a solid first five weeks of the season serving as the secondary receiving option to Cooper Kupp, the wheels have fallen off for Higbee since, with just three receptions for 22 yards in the past three games. Despite being on the field for nearly 80 percent of the team's offensive snaps, Higbee only managed a single target, a worrying trend after being peppered with 48 targets in Weeks 1-5. The Rams' Week 10 opponent, Arizona, just gave up a 5-96-0 line to Noah Fant in Week 9, and Higbee…read more

Drops potential long TD
Higbee (neck) finished with two receptions on six targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Higbee had a rough go of things Sunday, starting with an injury scare after a big hit early in the contest. The 29-year-old was able to return to the field Sunday, but he dropped a wide-open pass late in the game that should have went for a long touchdown. After posting three double-digit target games through the first five weeks of the season, the veteran tight end has fallen off with just three receptions for 22 yards over his last two. Higbee could see his usage jump back up if Cooper Kupp…read more

Back in Sunday's game
Higbee (neck) returned to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Analysis: At the end of a 10-yard catch on the Rams' second possession of the contest, Higbee appeared to be shaken up and was evaluated on the sideline before going to the locker room, where he was diagnosed with a neck injury. However, he was able to rejoin his teammates on the next drive, so he'll look to build upon his sparse receiving line for the final two-plus quarters.

Exits Sunday's game
Higbee was forced out of Sunday's game against the 49ers with a neck injury, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Before exiting the contest, Higbee caught one of his two targets for 10 yards. Next up for the Rams' tight end reps in his absence is Brycen Hopkins.

Just one catch in win
Higbee caught one of two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 24-10 victory against the Panthers.
Analysis: Higbee came into the contest with an ankle issue, and that may have contributed to his season lows in targets, receptions and yardage. The Rams go on bye next week, giving Higbee extra time to fully recover from the injury before he gets another chance to torch the 49ers in Week 8, after he put up a solid 10-73-0 line on a whopping 14 targets against them in Week 4.

Active for Week 6
Higbee (ankle) is active for Sunday's Week 6 clash against the Panthers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Higbee entered the weekend sporting a questionable tag but with optimism surrounding his availability as well, and his active status for Sunday's contest is now confirmed. The veteran, who's seen 24 targets in his last two games alone, should therefore be available to log his typically heavy workload against Carolina.

Gets injury tag for Week 6
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Higbee (ankle) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, but the tight end is expected to play, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Rams are giving questionable designations to both of their top pass catchers in Higbee and wideout Cooper Kupp (foot), but McVay doesn't believe either player is in serious danger of missing the Week 6 contest. With offseason pickup Allen Robinson having yet to demonstrate much of a rapport with quarterback Matthew Stafford, Higbee has established himself as the Rams' clear No. 2 target behind Kupp. Through five games, Higbee has yet to find the end zone, but he's amassed 33 catches for 290…read more

Limited Thursday
Higbee (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: One day removed from sitting out Wednesday due to an ankle issue, Higbee was back in the mix with a cap on his reps. He may have to get back to all activity Friday to be free of a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, but he at least displayed some progress in his return to drills.

Analysis: This comes on the heels of Higbee sitting out Wednesday due to an ankle concern. His activity level won't be known until the release of Thursday's practice report, but he very well could be limited, considering coach Sean McVay has said the Rams will "be smart" with the likes of Higbee and Cooper Kupp (foot) this week.

Sits out practice with ankle injury
Higbee was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Higbee joined Cooper Kupp (foot) on the sideline to kick off Week 6 prep, which isn't surprising after head coach Sean McVay told Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times earlier Wednesday that the teams will "be smart" with a few key contributors this week. Kupp and Higbee rank first and second on the team in terms of catches, targets and receiving yards, respectively, this season, so their statuses will be of keen interest as the weekend approaches.

Seven grabs in loss to Dallas
Higbee caught seven of 10 targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The tight end tied Cooper Kupp for the team lead in both catches and targets, but Higbee's longest gain went for only 10 yards. He's been Matthew Stafford's second-most reliable option so far this year, seeing double-digit targets three times in five games, and while he has yet to get into the end zone, Higbee is on pace for a career-best campaign heading into a Week 6 meeting with the Panthers.

Racks up 10 catches in Week 4
Higbee caught 10 of 14 targets for 73 yards in Monday's 24-9 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Higbee finished second to Cooper Kupp in targets, catches and receiving yards while totaling more catches and yards than the rest of the team combined. With Allen Robinson struggling to build chemistry with Matthew Stafford, Higbee has emerged as the Rams' second-most reliable target heading into a Week 5 matchup with the Cowboys, though Kupp should continue to see the lion's share of targets most weeks.

Productive again Sunday
Higbee caught all four of his targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: The Rams' passing game was quiet in the victory, but the tight end tied Cooper Kupp and Ben Skowronek for the lead in receptions. Higbee's off to an impressive start to the season with 16 catches on 24 targets for 171 yards through three games, but he could find it tough sledding in Week 4 against the 49ers' talented linebacking corps.

Seven receptions in win
Higbee caught seven of nine targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: For the second straight game, Higbee was second in targets behind Cooper Kupp and churned out consistent yardage for Matthew Stafford. The veteran tight end fell one yard shy of scoring his first touchdown of the year in the first quarter, but he had an otherwise solid night. Higbee's 71 receiving yards were the most he's had in a game since 2019, when he put up a monster 35-438-1 line over a four-game stretch.

Opens season with five catches
Higbee secured five of 11 targets for 39 yards in the Rams' 31-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.
Analysis: Higbee ended up second in targets behind Cooper Kupp on a night when Matthew Stafford was forced to often get rid of the ball quickly due to constant pressure. The veteran tight end could potentially play an even bigger role than he did during a 2021 season where he accrued the second-highest reception (61) and receiving yardage (560) totals of his career, as the departures of Robert Woods (knee) and Odell Beckham (knee) should open up some additional targets in the air attack despite the…read more

No action this preseason
Higbee didn't play in Saturday's preseason contest in Cincinnati.
Analysis: Higbee's return from an MCL sprain suffered during the NFC Championship Game will come with no playing time during the trio of preseason games, during which Kendall Blanton was surprisingly waived. The Rams may go into the season with just two tight ends, as only Brycen Hopkins seems like a lock for a roster spot with cut day looming Tuesday, so Higbee's heavy volume of work from his previous few seasons should remain consistent.

Back from MCL issue
Higbee, who missed the Rams' Super Bowl LVI win over the Bengals due to an MCL injury, has been participating in training camp, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Now that he's moved past his knee issue, Higbee -- who recorded 61 catches (on 85 targets) for 560 yards and five TDs in 15 regular-season games in 2021 -- is set to reprise his role as the Rams' clear-cut No. 1 pass-catching tight end. As long as he can stay healthy, Higbee should see steady enough targets from QB Matthew Stafford in a Rams' passing attack that also includes top wideouts Cooper Kupp and Allen Robinson to maintain a degree of fantasy relevance in most scoring formats.

No rush with rehab
Higbee (knee) said Tuesday that he was able to start on-field work at the beginning of May, but he's in no rush to get back to full speed during the offseason, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: HIgbee suffered an MCL sprain in the NFC Championship game against the 49ers and was ruled out for the Rams' Super Bowl win. The fact that the tight end has already returned to football activities is a great sign, but he's being cautious during the offseason to avoid any potential setbacks.

Placed on IR, out for Super Bowl
The Rams placed Higbee (knee) on injured reserve Friday, ruling him out for Sunday's Super Bowl against the Bengals.
Analysis: Higbee hasn't been able to practice since suffering an MCL sprain in the NFC Championship Game against San Francisco, with coach Sean McVay conveying pessimism all along. With their long-time starter at tight end ruled out for the big game, L.A. will turn to 26-year-old Kendall Blanton, who caught five of five targets for 57 yards in the Rams' win over San Francisco a couple weeks ago.

Analysis: Higbee hasn't stepped on the practice field since spraining his MCL in the first half of the Rams' win in the NFC Championship Game versus the 49ers back on Jan. 30. With just one session left to make his presence felt in drills this week, he doesn't have much margin for error ahead of a Super Bowl LVI matchup with the Bengals. A limited or inactive Higbee on Sunday would place Kendall Blanton into a regular role at tight end in Los Angeles' offense.

Analysis: Higbee sprained his MCL in the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 30 and was listed as a non-participant on the Rams' posted injury report last week. At this stage, the tight end's status for Sunday's Super Bowl against the Bengals is cloudy, more so if Higbee is unable to practice at all in advance of the contest.

Analysis: Higbee is tending to a sprained MCL that knocked him out in the first half of the Rams' victory in the NFC Championship Game this past Sunday against the 49ers. He has no practice reps under his belt yet ahead of a Super Bowl matchup with the Bengals, but with more than a week to go before the contest on Sunday, Feb. 13, he'll have a handful of chances to get some on-field reps. A limited or inactive Higbee would lead to increased significance for reserve tight end Kendall Blanton.

Analysis: Higbee's lack of activity comes as no surprise after he was unable to return to this past Sunday's win in the NFC Championship Game versus the 49ers due to what head coach Sean McVay later revealed to be a sprained MCL. The tight end will have two weeks to put himself in a position to suit up in the Super Bowl against the Bengals on Feb. 13, but if he's unable to go, Kendall Blanton would be the biggest beneficiary at tight end.

Analysis: Higbee and Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (knee) may be the two biggest injury question marks for the upcoming Super Bowl on Feb. 13. Higbee left Sunday's NFC Championship Game after only 14 snaps, leaving Kendall Blanton as the team's only tight end with rookie Brycen Hopkins on the inactive list.

Decent results in divisional round
Higbee hauled in four of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Higbee finished third among all Rams' receiving options behind Cooper Kupp (9-183-1) and Odell Beckham (6-69-0). The 28-year-old is averaging 48.5 receiving yards over Los Angeles' first two playoff appearances this year. While that yardage total is nothing to write home about, it is worth mentioning that two of Higbee's five regular-season touchdowns came in a Week 18 matchup against the 49ers, whom the Rams will be facing in the NFC Championship Game next Sunday.

Mediocre numbers against Cards
Higbee caught three of his four targets for 46 yards Monday in the Rams' 34-11 wild-card round victory over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Higbee has showcased a reliable fantasy floor over the past five games, as he's topped 40 receiving yards in each contest to the tune of 25 receptions for 259 yards and two touchdowns. The two scores came during the Week 18 loss to San Francisco, which was his best showing of the season. He should probably be viewed as a mid-tier option at tight end this weekend against the Buccaneers among the four divisional-round games.

Analysis: Higbee was the Rams' most effective pass catcher in the first quarter and his nine targets led the team, but they weren't particularly high-value looks. That Higbee saw more targets than Cooper Kupp (seven), Odell Beckham (seven) and Van Jefferson (five) could be viewed as an outlier in and of itself, so it's probably not something the Rams will look to repeat going forward.

Higbee recorded five receptions on six targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 30-23 win over Minnesota.
Analysis: Higbee returned from a two-game absence while on the reserve/COVID-19 list and matched his season high with five receptions. He worked primarily in areas close to the line of scrimmage but did manage to record receptions of 12 and 11 yards. Higbee figures to remain a substantial part of the offense heading into a Week 17 matchup against Baltimore, though his volume also figures to be capped due to the presence of Cooper Kupp, Odell Beckham and Van Jefferson.

False positive for COVID-19
Higbee's positive test for COVID-19 has been deemed a false positive, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Analysis: Higbee thus is not considered to have actually tested positive for the virus, despite numerous teammates recently doing so. That likely leaves a good chance for him to suit up Sunday against the Seahawks. Look for the tight end's activation from the Reserve/COVID-19 list to be forthcoming, though there's no need to rush the move with the Rams' facility shut down at the moment.

Analysis: According to Schefter, Higbee's placement on the list was the result of an initial positive test, but the tight end proceeded to test negative for the virus twice thereafter. That would seemingly lend credence to the idea that the initial result was a false positive, but because the Rams couldn't confirm as much prior to Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, Higbee will have to sit out his first game of the season.

Reliable underneath
Higbee caught five passes for 48 yards on six targets Sunday in the Rams' 37-7 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Higbee did his part to stabilize the Rams' passing game and move the chains Sunday, though the lack of explosiveness has proven a constant limitation in his box scores throughout the year. The 48 yards is his third-highest single-game yardage total of the season, with his highest mark being just 68 yards in Week 1. This usage tendency generally leaves Higbee dependent on touchdowns for useful fantasy point totals, but with just three on the year it's difficult to count on Higbee offsetting his…read more

Inefficient against Packers
Higbee caught one of his five targets for just three yards during Sunday's 36-28 loss to Green Bay.
Analysis: It's generally been a forgettable season for Higbee, as he's only found the end zone three times and has failed to top 50 receiving yards in nine of 11 games. He is receiving enough looks to remain on the fantasy radar with five targets or more in eight games, including 20 through his past three outings. Still, it's probably best to view the sixth-year tight end as a low-floor, low-ceiling asset moving forward.

Helps both teams
Higbee caught three of five targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 31-10 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Higbee started the game by having a drop turn into an interception returned for a touchdown on Los Angeles' second drive. To his credit, he responded with a 10-yard score during the second quarter, his third on the campaign. However, with another drop later on, it wasn't a performance for Higbee to remember fondly. He'll now enter the Rams' bye week on a sour note and strive to clean his play up in Week 12 versus the Packers.

Sees 10 targets in loss
Higbee had five receptions (10 targets) for 51 yards in Sunday's 28-16 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Higbee bounced back after a poor Week 8 showing (three catches for 25 yards), posting his highest receiving total since Week 1, with the 10 targets marking a new season high. The 28-year-old has been relatively quiet this season, but he provides a decent floor at a shallow fantasy position, so there is still some utility for Higbee. Up next for the Rams is a Monday Night Football matchup against the 49ers.

Quiet in blowout win
Higbee caught all three of his targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 38-22 win over Houston.
Analysis: This was another underwhelming showing from the veteran tight end. Higbee has been held below 50 receiving yards in each of the past seven games after hauling in five receptions for 68 yards in the season opener. Additionally, he's only found the end zone twice. Still, despite his lack of high-end production, Higbee has showcased a modest fantasy floor and could flirt with his previous career-high 68 receptions if he remains healthy.

Draws eight targets
Higbee caught five receptions for 46 yards on eight targets against Detroit on Sunday.
Analysis: Normally Higbee is highly efficient on modest target counts, but against the Lions he saw his efficiency fall off as his target count spiked upward. Other than WR1 Cooper Kupp, the Rams feature an ensemble cast of secondary targets, and Higbee is clearly part of that group. The problem is it's a big group, and Higbee probably ranks behind both Robert Woods and Van Jefferson. The fourth-leading pass catcher in the Rams offense has some amount of fantasy value, but the floor and ceiling both…read more

Five grabs in win
Higbee brought in all five targets for 36 yards in the Rams' 38-11 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran tight end checked in a distant second in receptions and receiving yards to Cooper Kupp, but he averaged just 7.2 yards per grab. Higbee has displayed a low fantasy ceiling throughout the season, recording no more than five receptions or 68 receiving yards in any contest. His pair of touchdowns has helped prop up his value some, but fantasy managers will hope he can break out in a favorable Week 7 home matchup against the Lions.

Up to six red-zone targets
Higbee caught both of his targets for 14 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's 26-17 win over Seattle.
Analysis: The score was the veteran's second of the season, and Higbee has quietly been a respectable fantasy producer from the tight end position. He's also up to six red-zone targets through five games, so while his year-long numbers don't jump off the page (17-166-2), Higbee projects to remain a serviceable contributor in the majority of fantasy formats.

Higbee (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game in Seattle, Stu Jackson of the Ram's official site reports.
Analysis: Higbee was listed as limited on Los Angeles' first two injury reports of Week 5, only to be listed as a full practice participant on the final one released Wednesday. Granted, Wednesday's session was merely a walkthrough, but the tight end has been cleared for action Thursday. Higbee will look to produce against a Seahawks defense that has allowed 10.4 yards per reception to opposing tight ends this season.

His production has been respectable, with 15 catches (on 18 targets) for 152 yards and one touchdown to date. Assuming he gets through Week 5 prep unscathed and suits up as expected Thursday in Seattle, Higbee could be poised for another modest performance against a Seahawks defense that sits tied for 13th in catches allowed…read more

Finds end zone
Higbee recorded five receptions on five targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 3 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Higbee rebounded after earning only one target Week 2 and continued to operate very efficiently. Through three weeks, he's converted 11 of his 12 targets into receptions while averaging 9.7 yards per target. Higbee's primary contribution Week 3 came on a six-yard touchdown reception, which was the opening score of the game. He also chipped in catches that went for 11 and 12 yards. In Week 4, Higbee and the Rams will take on the Cardinals in what could be a fast-paced contest.

Just one catch
Higbee caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Higbee got shut down while Cooper Kupp stole the show with a 9-163-2 line. Matthew Stafford has certainly elevated this offense, so Higbee has some weekly upside as he showed in Week 1 with five receptions for 58 yards. The Rams will go back home for a Week 3 matchup against the Buccaneers, who have given up 16 catches for 144 yards and no touchdowns to tight ends through two games.

Posts 68 yards in victory
Higbee caught five of six targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 34-14 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Higbee was the only Los Angeles tight end to see any targets, which confirms his status as the clear starter at the position. The 28-year-old also finished second in targets behind Cooper Kupp, which is a great sign with Matthew Stafford making his Rams debut. The only downside is that Higbee didn't hit paydirt in a contest that saw his team cross the goal line four times. Still, the volume was solid and the job security appears to be strong as well.

Doesn't see action Saturday
Higbee didn't play in Saturday's preseason game against the Raiders.
Analysis: The veteran tight end was joined by the Rams' entire collection of projected starting skill-position players on the sideline, so his absence was entirely unsurprising. Higbee will be operating with an experienced and proficient downfield passer in Matthew Stafford this coming season, and with his hold on the starting job seemingly secure, he could potentially put up numbers akin to the career-best 69-734-3 line he produced over 15 games back in 2019 with Jared Goff under center.

Fails to live up to hype
Higbee finished the 2020 regular season with 44 receptions for 521 yards and five touchdowns in 15 games. He also added three catches for nine yards through Los Angeles' two playoff contests.
Analysis: The fifth-year tight end was a popular 2020 breakout target after piling up 43 receptions, 522 yards and two touchdowns over the final five games of the 2019 campaign. Unfortunately, the production didn't carry over. To start, the Rams turned to the rushing attack more frequently. After having the eighth highest passing-play percentage (62.0) during the 2019 campaign, Los Angeles dipped to a 26th-ranked 55.8 mark this season. Additionally, fellow tight end Gerald Everett finished with…read more

Virtual non-factor vs. Seahawhs
Higbee caught one of three targets for four yards during Saturday's 30-20 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: On a day when the Rams threw the ball just 25 times, Higbee wasn't heavily involved and mainly picked up scraps as Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp (knee) saw most of the targets. Kupp left the game in the latter stages because of an injury that could potentially affect his availability for the NFC divisional round matchup against either Green Bay or the Buccaneers.

Another quiet showing in finale
Higbee caught three of his four targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 18-7 win over Arizona.
Analysis: After a promising finish to the 2019 campaign, Higbee was a popular breakout candidate heading into 2020. Unfortunately the fifth-year tight end disappointed and, outside of a three-touchdown showing in Week 2, he was largely unproductive and a fantasy afterthought. While the potential is there for a strong showing against Seattle in the wild-card round, a productive outing for Higbee is far from a guarantee.

Catches half his targets in loss
Higbee caught three of his six targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 20-9 loss to Seattle.
Analysis: After finding the end zone last week, Higbee failed to make a fantasy dent Sunday. He's only topped 50 receiving yards in four different games all season, and three of his five touchdowns came Week 2. It's been a disappointing campaign for the fifth-year tight end, and his prospects aren't promising for the season finale, either. Quarterback Jared Goff (thumb) underwent surgery Monday, and backup QB John Walford hasn't played a competitive game since the 2019 preseason.

Analysis: For the second straight game, the tight end led the Rams in receiving, though Higbee managed only 101 yards between the two contests. He also scored his fifth TD of the season and second in the last three games on a three-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. Higbee will look to keep rolling during a Week 16 trip to Seattle that will likely decide the winner of the NFC West.

Unlikely receiving yardage leader
Higbee secured both of his targets for 34 yards in the Rams' 24-3 win over the Patriots on Thursday night.
Analysis: The fifth-year pro made a splash on the first offensive play of the game, notching a 25-yard grab that put the Rams at midfield on a drive that would culminate in a Jared Goff rushing touchdown. Higbee had just one more reception for nine yards the rest of the way, however, leaving him short of the 35-yard mark for the fourth straight game.

He's produced just 4.1 yards per target over the past three games and has only topped 50 receiving yards in three games all season.

Analysis: Higbee, who's recorded 27 catches (on 35 targets) for 315 yards and three TDs (all in Week 2) in nine games to date, was listed as a non-participant in practice all week due to an elbow injury that he suffered during Week 11 action, so it remains to be seen how close to a full workload he'll see Sunday.

Analysis: Outside of Higbee's huge Week 2 showing that included three touchdowns, the fifth-year tight end has been held to just eight receptions for 101 yards across his other three games. Those numbers aren't moving the needle, and after a strong five-week stretch (43 receptions for 522 yards and two touchdowns) to conclude the 2019 campaign, his inconsistency to start this year should have fantasy managers concerned about relying on Higbee week in, week out.

Slowed down by Bills
Higbee caught both his targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 35-32 loss to Buffalo. He also caught a pass to complete a two-point conversion.
Analysis: After scoring three touchdowns last week against Philadelphia, it wasn't surprising to see Buffalo focus on slowing down Higbee, and he didn't catch a pass until halfway through the third quarter. The fourth-year tight end did have an impressive 31-yard reception and remains a focal point of the passing attack, but opposing teams could also continue game planning to keep him in check. Week-to-week inconsistently could quickly prove to be part and parcel for Higbee moving forward.

Hat trick in comfortable win
Higbee caught all five of his targets for 54 yards and three touchdowns in the Rams' 37-19 win over the Eagles on Sunday.
Analysis: Higbee caught Jared Goff's first touchdown of the game from four yards out early in the first quarter. He then got open in the end zone just minutes into the second quarter before capping off his day with a 28-yard scamper down the left sideline where he went in untouched for the hat trick before waving and bowing to the empty stadium. After a huge finish to the 2019 season, it seems Higbee has carried momentum into 2020, settling in as a top-three option in the Rams' passing game.

Quiet in Week 1 win
Higbee caught three of his four targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 20-17 win over Dallas.
Analysis: A lot is expected from Higbee this season after he capped off the 2019 campaign with a 43-522-2 stat line over the final five games. With that in mind, this likely wasn't the start fantasy managers had hoped for. The fifth-year tight end played 65 of 73 snaps though, and he did show his big-play ability by turning a short pass into a 21-yard reception in the second quarter. With so many weapons in the Los Angeles offense, there are likely to be a number of peaks and valleys over the course of…read more

Discusses 2019 late-season breakout
Higbee said he tried to take advantage of the increased opportunities presented to him late last season and prove he can be relied on in the passing attack, Jordan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With 43 receptions for 522 yards and two touchdowns over the final five games of the 2019 season, Higbee certainly proved capable of being a reliable contributor for head coach Sean McVay and quarterback Jared Goff. It's not a lock Higbee picks up where he left off, though. To start, it's a small sample, and fourth-year tight end Gerald Everett will also be involved in the passing attack. Still, Higbee is the superior blocker of the two, and he's already showcased his ability to make an impact.…read more

Late-season dominance continues
Higbee caught eight of 12 targets for 84 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-24 win over Arizona.
Analysis: With Sunday's big performance, Higbee recorded an impressive 43 receptions for 522 yards and two touchdowns over the final five weeks of the season. It's impossible to imagine his role diminishing significantly to start the 2020 campaign, and the breakout stretch definitely legitimizes Los Angeles signing him to a four-year, $31.03 million contract in September. However, fellow tight end Gerald Everett still looms and has flashed big-play potential himself, so it's possible that he could cut…read more

Fourth straight 100-yard effort
Higbee secured nine of 11 targets for 104 yards in the Rams' 34-31 loss to the 49ers on Saturday.
Analysis: Despite the return to action of Gerald Everett (knee), Higbee still was the clear top option at tight end, outpacing his position mate by 10 targets. Higbee also paced the Rams in receptions and co-led the team in targets on the way to his fourth consecutive 100-yard effort. The 2016 fourth-round pick's late-season play has been a revelation, and he'll face the team he first eclipsed the century mark against, the Cardinals, to close out the season in Week 17.

Tops century mark again
Higbee caught 12 of 14 targets for 111 yards in Sunday's 44-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The tight end continued his late-season breakout, hauling in over 100 receiving yards for the third straight game after managing only 212 yards through the Rams' first 10 contests. Even if Gerald Everett (knee) makes it back into the lineup for one or both of the club's final two games, it seems highly unlikely that Higbee will fade back into the woodwork given the chemistry he's showing with Jared Goff. He'll try to keep things rolling next Saturday against a 49ers defense that held Austin…read more

Team's clear No. 1 tight end again
Higbee should work as the Rams' clear No. 1 tight end Sunday against the Cowboys with Gerald Everett (knee/illness) ruled out for a third consecutive game.
Analysis: Considering that Everett has yet to even resume practicing suffering the knee injury in a Nov. 25 loss to Baltimore and is also recovering from a stomach virus, Higbee could be unchallenged for the top spot on the depth chart beyond Week 15. For now though, Higbee will profile as one of the top fantasy options at his position, as he's turned in back-to-back seven-catch, 100-plus-yard receiving efforts while playing at least 90 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps in both of the past two weeks.…read more

Eclipses 100 yards again
Higbee had seven catches (11 targets) for 116 yards in Sunday's 28-12 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Gerald Everett (knee) was held out of action yet again, which opened the door for Higbee to go off for 100-plus yards for the second consecutive game. All it took for the Rams' tight end position to go from a black hole to a fantasy gold mine was for one of the two co-starters to be removed from the picture. There was nothing in Higbee's prior career numbers to suggest that he could be such an offensive force, but with two weeks of proof in front of us, the tight end is a must-add and a likely…read more

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.

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.
