In a year when seemingly everyone got injured for the Rams, Higbee appeared in all 17 games. It was par for the course as the veteran has missed just four games in seven seasons. While not among the NFL's most explosive tight ends, Higbee is steady, averaging 62 receptions, 609 yards, and 4 TDs over the past four years. While the Rams did trade for Hunter Long in the Jalen Ramsey deal and spent a fifth-round pick on Davis Allen, there's no one to challenge Higbee for the pass-catching role.
Although there isn't a lot to get excited about with Higbee, there aren't many other options at the position that'll deliver a more reliable, high-floor play than the durable veteran. He'd be a nice late-round grab for risk-averse owners as a low-end TE1.

Torn ACL expected for Rams' TE Tyler Higbee MRI will be done today By: Mike Krueger | Mon Jan 15, 7:00 am
| | Rams believe TE Tyler Higbee tore his ACL after absorbing a low hit from Detroit safety Kerby Joseph, per sources. There will be additional testing to confirm the initial diagnosis. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Higbee took a shot to the knee in the Rams Wildcard game against the Lions. He'll likely be out for most of the off-season and be questionable for the start of the 2024 season. Davis Allen had 2 catches for 28 yards in relief.
| Rams will rest a handful of starters in Week 18 Kyren Williams, Cooper Kupp included By: Mike Krueger | Wed Jan 3, 4:50 pm
| | Per Sean McVay: The Rams will rest Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Kyren Williams, Aaron Donald and Ernest Jones, all healthy, in anticipation of the postseason.

FFToday's Take: The Rams will be rolling out the backups on offense in Week 18 against the 49ers. Ronnie Rivers could see an expanded role at running back as he's been the backup to Kyren the last two weeks. Royce Freeman and Zach Evans are also options.
