Tyler Higbee

Higbee made his return to the field on Sunday after missing the entire year following ACL surgery after last year's playoffs. The 31-year-old hauled in his catch on a play-action pass and leaped through a tackle into the end zone. He will continue to play more snaps over the final two games and figures to emerge as the lead tight end again, but he remains off the fantasy radar in redraft leagues.

Welcome back, Tyler Higbee.

Playing in his first game since sustaining a torn ACL 11 months ago, Tyler Higbee catches the go-ahead touchdown pass in the Rams' 19-9 comeback win.

Welcome back, Tyler Higbee.

Higbee is finally ready to make his 2024 debut after suffering a torn ACL in the playoffs in January. He underwent surgery on his knee and, per Garafolo, also needed shoulder surgery in the offseason. The Rams have slow-played his return so far. Higbee has been practicing in full for multiple weeks but has been held out on Sundays as he gets up to full speed. They will continue to ease him back into action with a pitch count this week, keeping him off the fantasy radar entirely.
