Active for Sunday's game
Higbee (elbow) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
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. If he's limited at all in the contest, added tight-end snaps would be available for Gerald Everett and Johnny Mundt.

Status in question for Sunday
Higbee (elbow) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the 49ers, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Analysis: Higbee was unable to practice all week due to an elbow injury that he suffered during a Week 11 win at Tampa Bay. During a media session Friday, coach Sean McVay said Higbee will be a game-time call as a result, meaning his availability likely will come down to how he looks during a pregame warmup. The Rams will make a ruling on Higbee's status about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. If Higbee is limited or doesn't play at all, Gerald Everett and Johnny Mundt will take on extra…read more

No practice Thursday
Higbee (elbow) was held out of practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Sean McVay called Higbee day-to-day Wednesday, but just one day later the coach referred to the tight end as a game-time decision for Sunday's contest against the 49ers, per Rodrigue. Ideally, Higbee will get in some practice reps before week's end, but he only has one more chance to do so Friday. If Higbee is inhibited or not able to play this weekend, Gerald Everett and Johnny Mundt will take on larger roles in the Rams' passing attack.

Sits out Wednesday's practice
Higbee (elbow) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Analysis: Coach Sean McVay said earlier Wednesday that the 27-year-old was day-to-day with an elbow injury, so it's not a major surprise to see Higbee sitting out after Monday's win over Tampa Bay. Higbee's practice participation Thursday and Friday should provide a better idea of his potential availability for this weekend's matchup with the 49ers.

Dealing with elbow injury
Coach Sean McVay said Higbee suffered an elbow injury during Monday's win at Tampa Bay and is considered day-to-day, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Higbee picked up the issue in the second half of the aforementioned game, logging 72 percent of the snaps on offense in the process. The Rams will reveal Higbee's activity level upon the release of Wednesday's injury report.

Pedestrian numbers in MNF win
Higbee caught all four of his targets for 19 yards and added a one-yard rush during Monday's 27-24 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Interestingly, all four of Higbee's targets came on first downs, as head coach Sean McVay clearly leaned on the veteran tight end to create favorable distances to move the chains. However, Higbee's numbers didn't move the fantasy needle Monday, and his underwhelming season continues to drag along. Fantasy managers should probably aim higher in the majority of settings.

Finds form in win over Seahawks
Higbee caught three of six targets for a season-high 60 yards during Sunday's 23-16 win over Seattle.
Analysis: The fifth-year tight end was particularly instrumental on Los Angeles' second drive with receptions of 39 and 14 yards before a rushing score from running back Darrell Henderson put Los Angeles in the lead for good. Higbee's been quiet since scoring three touchdowns Week 2 against Philadelphia, but this was a better outing and could prove to be a sign of things to come. Fantasy managers will still probably want to keep expectations in check, though.

Feels recovered from hand injury
Higbee said Thursday that his hand "finally feels good," Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Higbee missed Week 7 due to a hand contusion but managed to return against Miami in Week 9, when he caught two passes for 14 yards. Now coming off Los Angeles' bye, it looks like the 27-year-old is back to 100 percent. Per Rodrigue, Higbee may even be able to shed his hand brace during Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Pair of catches in return
Higbee (hand) brought in two of four targets for 14 yards in the Rams' 28-17 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Higbee made his return from a one-game absence due to a hand contusion, but he didn't stand out in a loss that was more lopsided than the final score implies. Outside of a spectacular three-touchdown day in Week 2 against the Eagles, Higbee hasn't done much of note through the first half of his season, topping out at the five catches and 54 yards he posted in that contest in terms of single-game highs. He'll look to utilize the bye week to further recover before a key Week 10 matchup against…read more

Available in Week 8
Higbee (hand) is listed as active Sunday in Miami, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Analysis: Despite his hand injury described as a "pretty gnarly" contusion, Higbee will miss just one game as a result. While he may play second fiddle to fellow TE Gerald Everett, Higbee will look to produce against a Dolphins defense that has allowed just 6.6 YPT and no touchdowns to the position this season.

Week 8 status TBD
Higbee (hand), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, is "pushing to play," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: That said, Rapoport suggests that with a bye coming up in Week 9 and Johnny Mundt on hand to provide depth at tight end behind Gerald Everett, it might make sense for the Rams to rest Higbee for another game. Confirmation on whether Higbee will play or sit out Week 8 will arrive once the team's inactives are released approximately 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Considered game-time decision
Higbee (hand) will be a game-time decision Sunday in Miami, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Rams are listing Higbee as questionable for a second straight week, hoping he'll be able to suit up this time. He was a limited practice participant Wednesday and Thursday, whereas last week he didn't do any work until the final session (Saturday) before the game. It is possible Higbee has his pass-catching role scaled back even if he plays, as coach Sean McVay recently referred to the tight end's hand contusion as "pretty gnarly".

Remains limited at practice
Higbee (hand) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Analysis: Higbee has strung together back-to-back limited sessions, with Thursday's showing coinciding with the Rams' most rigorous workout of the week, per Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com. On Wednesday, coach Sean McVay referred to Higbee's hand injury as "a pretty gnarly hand contusion," so it remains to be seen if he'll be able to cap his time away from the field to just one game. Elsewhere in the TE room, Gerald Everett (illness) followed up Wednesday's DNP with a full practice Thursday, giving the Rams at…read more

Limited at walk-through
Higbee (hand) is listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
Analysis: During Week 7 prep, Higbee didn't practice before putting in a limited showing Saturday, but that wasn't enough for him to get clearance to play Monday night against the Bears. According to coach Sean McVay, Higbee again was limited at Wednesday's walk-through, but the tight end remains day-to-day due to "a pretty gnarly hand contusion," per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. The bruise is "painful and affecting the mobility" of Higbee's hand, so his status should continue to be monitored as the…read more

Won't play Monday
Higbee (hand) is listed as inactive Monday versus the Bears, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Analysis: In the midst of Higbee following a DNP/DNP/LP practice regimen, coach Sean McVay said Friday that the TE was expected to play through the hand injury he suffered Week 6 at San Francisco. Instead, the Rams have changed course and opted to keep Higbee in street clothes Monday. In Higbee's place, Gerald Everett will be the Rams' top TE in Week 7, with Johnny Mundt and Brycen Hopkins on hand for any lingering reps.

Questionable, expected to play
Higbee (hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest but is expected to play, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It'll be interesting to see how much Higbee can really do as a pass catcher if he's active Monday, as the tight end injured his hand in the loss to the 49ers last week. While coach Sean McVay has been adamant Higbee will play Monday, it's possible Higbee could primarily be used as a blocker, with any pass-catching responsibilities falling upon Gerald Everett. Higbee played 75 percent of the snaps Sunday against the 49ers compared to Everett's 50, but both tight ends ended up running the same…read more

Misses practice, should play Week 7
Higbee (hand) won't participate in Friday's practice, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: Higbee's back-to-back absences to begin the practice week would normally be cause for concern, but Rams head coach Sean McVay downplayed the situation, saying that he expects the tight end to be good to go for Monday's game against the Bears, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. Before deciding whether Higbee carries a designation into the Week 7 contest, the Rams will wait and see what he's able to do in their final practice of the week Saturday.

No practice Thursday
Higbee (hand) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Aside from a three-touchdown showing Week 2, Higbee has been difficult to rely on, as he's yet to surpass 60 yards in any game this season. Now with a hand injury in tow, his practice level will need to be monitored in advance of Monday's game against the Bears. If the issue lingers or even forces an absence, Higbee would cede snaps and targets to Gerald Everett.

Shows off with 31-yard grab
Higbee caught three of four targets for 57 yards during Sunday's 24-16 loss to San Francisco.
Analysis: The bulk of Higbee's production came on a 31-yard reception in the third quarter, and he also hauled in a 17-yard pass during the Rams' first drive. This was the fifth-year tight end's best game since scoring three touchdowns Week 2 against Philadelphia, and while he's probably still a little risky in most fantasy settings, Sunday's showing was a step in the right direction. Just remember head coach Sean McVay and quarterback Jared Goff tend to spread the ball around, and fellow tight end…read more

Disappointing season continues
Higbee caught both his targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 30-10 win over Washington.
Analysis: With just seven receptions for 72 yards over the past three weeks, Higbee's fantasy value continues to dwindle. Making matters worse, fellow tight end Gerald Everett led the Rams in receiving with four receptions for 90 yards Sunday. Higbee also only ran 16 routes, which tied for his lowest mark of the season. He's currently difficult to trust in most settings.

Held to just 21 receiving yards
Higbee caught three of four targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Giants.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
