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.

Mason Taylor News
Tuesday, March 31, 8:04 AM
New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn expects tight end Mason Taylor to make a big jump and have a "hell of a year" in his second season in the NFL in 2026, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Taylor ended his rookie season on Injured Reserve due to a neck injury, but it's not expected to impact his availability at the start of the 2026 campaign this fall. In 13 games for the Jets last year, Taylor caught 44 of his 65 targets for 369 yards and only one touchdown. It wasn't exactly what dynasty managers were hoping for, but it also wasn't completely Taylor's fault. He missed the final four games with a neck injury, and New York's passing attack was brutal with quarterbacks Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook. Taylor didn't have much of a chance to get going in his rookie season, and he was the TE35 overall in half-PPR scoring. Going into Year 2, the former second-rounder could be handcuffed again by a poor offense, which will now be run by veteran Geno Smith, who led the league with 17 interceptions in 2025 with the Raiders. Take Glenn's statement this week about Taylor with a grain of salt.
