Higbee has been the TE10 on TE9 usage over the last month with Terrance Ferguson sidelined. Even last week's relative dud still included 31-of-38 routes and four receptions. That, of course, was with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams healthy. Adams is out for about 10 weeks (aka the regular season), and Ferguson isn't eligible to return from his ankle injury until Week 8 at the very earliest.

Higbee elevated to TE10 usage with Adams out and Ferguson sidelined.

Higbee has been TE10 on TE9 usage over the last month with Terrance Ferguson sidelined. Even last week's relative dud included 31-of-38 routes and four receptions. With Davante Adams out for approximately 10 weeks and Ferguson ineligible to return until Week 8 at the earliest, Higbee will see expanded opportunity. He posted his best game of the year in Week 3 (TE7 on TE3 usage) without Nacua and Ferguson. The Raiders allow the sixth-most points to TEs, and the Rams carry a high team total of 26.5 (fourth) with minimal WR depth, creating an excellent environment for Higbee.
