The Los Angeles Rams are leaving tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) on the Physically Unable to Perform list, which means he is ineligible to be active during the first four games of the 2024 season. This shouldn't come as much of a surprise after Higbee tore his ACL and MCL in his right knee in the loss in the playoffs to the Detroit Lions on Jan. 14. The 31-year-old veteran hasn't taken part in any of training camp and missed the entire preseason as well. At the very least, Higbee is probably going to miss at least around half of the 2024 season, depending on how he progresses once he returns to football activities. In the meantime, Colby Parkinson figures to be LA's top pass-catching tight end ahead of Davis Allen and Hunter Long. Parkinson is only worth a flier as a TE3 in two-TE leagues, while Higbee can be left to the waiver wire in standard-sized fantasy leagues to begin the year.

The New York Jets have signed former Detroit Lions tight end Anthony Firkser. Firkser joins a Jets tight end room led by Tyler Conklin. Firkser only appeared in two games for the Lions in 2023 and did not record a statistic. This appears to be a depth add for the Jets as they prepare for the season's long haul with eyes set on the Super Bowl. Time will tell if Firkser manages to make the final roster. This move is of little consequence for fantasy football.
