Should I Start Tyler Higbee?

Friday, November 13, 2:31 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (illness) was limited in practice on Friday but has been removed from the Week 10 injury report and will play on Sunday against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals, according to Blaine Grisak of Sports Illustrated. Higbee came down with an illness on Thursday and did not practice, but he is feeling better now and will be fine to suit up on Sunday in what should be an elevated pass-catching role for the banged-up Rams offense. Fellow tight end Colby Parkinson (rib) will also be active, while Davis Allen (oblique) is questionable. The Rams now have receivers Puka Nacua (knee, toe), Davante Adams (hamstring), and Jordan Whittington (back) on Injured Reserve, so quarterback Matthew Stafford has run out of reliable targets in the passing game going into a very favorable matchup this weekend in the desert. Tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle, hamstring) also remains on IR. The 33-year-old Higbee has not had more than two receptions or 14 yards in any of the last three games, but with all of L.A.'s wideouts hurt, he will be on the TE1/2 borderline in fantasy football this weekend. In the first meeting with Arizona on Oct. 18, Higbee caught all four of his targets for 22 yards. His lone touchdown in 2026 came in the Sept. 27 loss to the Denver Broncos.
