Rams Leaving Tyler Higbee On PUP List

Tuesday, August 27, 3:04 PM

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.

Jake Ferguson Listed As Doubtful For Week 2

Friday, September 13, 4:44 PM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (knee) was listed as doubtful for Sunday's game on Friday's injury report, according to Bobby Belt of 1053 The Fan. The tight end suffered an MCL sprain in the season opener but fortunately avoided a significant injury. The Dallas coaching staff expressed optimism throughout the week regarding the 25-year-old's status for their Week 2 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. However, seeing him listed as doubtful does not bode well for his chance of suiting up. Fantasy managers should expect Luke Schoonmaker to serve as the lead tight end for Dallas on Sunday. Schoonmaker caught just eight passes in his rookie season last year. However, two of them were in the end zone.
