Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or Jakobi Meyers

Tuesday, December 16, 12:00 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said tight end Tyler Higbee (ankle) will remain sidelined for the team's Week 16 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, per Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. Higbee was placed on Injured Reserve following Week 11 due to an ankle injury. Across nine games before getting hurt, the 32-year-old had recorded 20 receptions for 190 yards and two touchdowns on 30 targets. The Rams operate with one of the deepest tight end rooms in the NFL, as all three of Davis Allen, Colby Parkinson, and Terrance Ferguson have played at least 15 offensive snaps in every game since Higbee went down. Parkinson has stepped up as the leading receiver of the group, recording six touchdowns over his last five games. With Higbee sidelined and Rams wideout Davante Adams (hamstring) potentially out as well, Parkinson could be a viable streaming option at the tight end position for fantasy managers in Week 16.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has become a popular target in this offense in recent weeks. Meyers currently carries a three-game touchdown streak into the Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets. Last week, Meyers saw 10 targets, which was his most since Week 2. The Jags are clearly leaning on him in the passing game, and that should continue this weekend. Meyers figures to continue having success against an average Jets secondary. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Meyers to offer WR2 upside for this home contest.
