Tyler Higbee News
Thursday, March 5, 3:51 PM
The Los Angeles Rams and tight end Tyler Higbee agreed to a two-year, $8 million deal on Thursday, agent Erik Burkhardt told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Higbee has struggled to stay healthy the last two years, playing in a combined 13 regular-season games, but the 33-year-old veteran will return to L.A. In 10 regular-season contests last year, he caught 25 passes for 281 yards and three touchdowns on 36 targets. The 10-year-old veteran has never topped 734 receiving yards or five touchdowns in a single season since being taken in the fourth round by the Rams in 2016 out of Western Kentucky, and that's unlikely to happen in his 11th season in 2026. Higbee has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Matthew Stafford, but the Rams will likely continue to run a lot of two-tight-end sets that also include Colby Parkinson and Terrance Ferguson. Higbee will have a limited ceiling and low floor while sharing targets with Parkinson and Ferguson again next season.

Elijah Arroyo News
Wednesday, March 18, 4:51 PM
Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo carried plenty of upside coming out of college. While it initially seemed like his landing spot in Seattle gave him a path to contributing as a rookie, that didn't pan out. Instead, Arroyo caught just 15 passes across 13 games, operating as a clear depth option behind breakout tight end A.J. Barner. Given that Barner remains under contract for 2026 and is still trending up, it's hard to envision Arroyo carving out much of a fantasy-relevant role in his second pro season. He should take a natural second-year leap, but we expect him to remain outside the top 36 fantasy receivers in redraft leagues. From a dynasty perspective, he's only worth buying in very deep leagues where you can afford to be patient with his development.
