PositiveRoleOct 21, 2026
Tyler Higbee has stepped up significantly with a much bigger role for the Rams in recent games as the team deals with wide receiver injuries, positioning him as a beneficiary of the Devontae Adams injury.PositiveRoleOct 19, 2026
Tyler Higbee is the source's top streaming tight end for Week 7; with Devonta Adams potentially injured (non-contact knee injury status unclear), Higbee could become the number two pass catcher for the Rams this week, elevating his fantasy value.PositiveProjectionOct 17, 2026
Tyler Higbee has been a tight end 1 in three straight games since Terrence Ferguson was hurt, yet was ranked as tight end 15 (later moved to tight end 16). The source argues this ranking is too low given the Rams' massive 12.5-point spread against Arizona, the implied team total, and Higbee's recent performance. Arizona has been one of the best matchups for fantasy tight ends historically and is giving up the most yards per target at the position and third-most fantasy points by opportunity this year. Over the last two weeks, Higbee was tight end 12 and tight end 10. The source projects him as tight end 9 or potentially higher if Colby Parkinson is scratched.PositiveMatchupOct 16, 2026
Arizona has been god-awful against tight ends, giving up the most yards per target and third most fantasy points per opportunity to the position. The source notes that in 2019, Higbee had some of his best games of his career against the Cardinals, and the Cardinals have been a flow state for tight ends for a half decade.PositiveProjectionOct 16, 2026
Tyler Higbee has been tight end 12 and tight end 10 over the last two weeks, tying in one in weekly scoring. Over the last two weeks, he has 2.0 yards per route run. The source ranks him as a top 12 tight end for the week. The source also notes that if you go back further, Higbee destroyed the Cardinals defense in a previous matchup, providing three weeks of sample.PositiveRoleOct 13, 2026
Tyler Higbee has stepped up in the absence of Terrence Ferguson, setting a season-high with 83 receiving yards. While his route participation (65%) and target share (12% over the last two games) are not elite, he has earned Matthew Stafford's trust and ranks third in yardage among tight ends over the last three weeks, trailing only Brock Bowers and Sam LaPorta.PositiveSleeperOct 5, 2026
Tyler Higbee is recommended as a tight end streamer for Week 5, with the source noting that his usage would be highly valued if he were a more prominent name like Parkinson or Ferguson.
