Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee scored a dramatic touchdown to help the Rams get a road win over the Jets on Sunday. He finished with just one catch for 11 yards on two targets while playing limited snaps, but he took his one catch into the end zone with a leaping score that snapped a 9-9 tie in the fourth quarter. Higbee had been sidelined since tearing his ACL and MCL last year in their playoff loss to the Lions. He is expected to be the Rams' top tight end option going forward and should build up to a full workload as the Rams finish the season with home divisional games against the Cardinals and Seahawks. Still, he'll be a shaky, touchdown-dependent TE play in Week 17.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz drew six targets on Wednesday against Baltimore, but finished with just two catches for 21 yards. The Texans' offense looked awful in the game, with quarterback C.J. Stroud off target on a number of throws and the offensive line unable to sustain much of anything in the running or passing game as Houston failed to score a point on offense. Without No. 2 receiver Tank Dell (knee), the veteran tight end figured to be in line for a bit more receiving work, but a decent number of targets didn't lead to much production. Schultz likely will remain in the TE2 range when the Texans conclude the regular season on Jan. 5 at Tennessee.
