Higbee has been on the PUP list all season after tearing his ACL last year. For now, Rams tight ends remain off the fantasy radar.

The Rams are leaving Tyler Higbee on the PUP list, causing him to miss the first four games of the season.

Higbee was unlikely to be healthy for the start of the season. Colby Parkinson is likely going to take over the lead role at tight end for the Rams in his absence. He is a potential early season streamer for fantasy managers in favorable matchups.

Tyler Higbee is reportedly a candidate to begin the season on the PUP list.

Fantasy Impact

Higbee remains without a clear timetable to return to the field as he continues to recover from a torn ACL. Colby Parkinson signed a three-year deal with the Rams this offseason and could open the season in a starting role.

Rams GM Les Snead said Tyler Higbee has had surgery to repair his torn ACL, but his timeline to return is "still unclear."

Fantasy Impact

Higbee tore his ACL and MCL in the Rams Wild Card loss against the Lions. His injury status will be worth monitoring throughout the rest of the offseason.

Rams TE Tyler Higbee is believed to have suffered a torn ACL in Sunday’s loss to Detroit.

Fantasy Impact

Higbee was hit in the knee on his last reception of the game and had his foot stuck in the turf. He was clearly in pain as he exited the field and will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the knee injury. The 31-year-old would likely miss a significant portion of the 2024 season if he indeed suffered a torn ACL.
