Top-15 TE option while Terrance Ferguson is out

Tyler Higbee is a top-15 tight end option while Terrance Ferguson is sidelined. Higbee occupies the same specific role as Ferguson, evidenced by a 64% route share and 11% target share on Monday night. Mattek notes this role is distinct from the one played by Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen.
