Tyler Higbee A Low-End TE1 For Week 3

Saturday, September 23, 9:07 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee will look to get back on track after two underwhelming weeks to start the season. Despite Cooper Kupp (hamstring) being out, Higbee has accounted for a mere 10% team target share and is the overall TE24 through the season's first two weeks. Puka Nacua, Tutu Atwell, and Kyren Williams have all out-targeted Higbee and seem to be the centerpieces of the offense with Kupp out. The 30-year-old tight end should still be rostered, but you should temper expectations for him in the team's Monday night matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
