Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or Taysom Hill

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee caught all four of his targets for 37 yards during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans. After occupying a relatively reduced role in the season opener, the veteran tight end was much more involved this past Sunday. His snap share jumped from 58 percent to 74 percent, and his target count jumped from zero to four. One possible reason for Higbee's emergence was the absence of Colby Parkinson (shoulder), who remains uncertain for Week 3. However, even when Parkinson returns, Higbee can have fantasy relevance. After all, the Rams are comfortable running two-tight end sets. Higbee ranks as a low-end TE2 heading into next week's clash against the Philadelphia Eagles.

New Orleans Saints tight ends Taysom Hill (knee) and Foster Moreau (knee) are both recovering from torn ACLs suffered last season and are starting on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, according to Ross Jackson of Locked On Saints. Both Hill and Moreau will be required to at least miss the first four games of the 2025 season, and based on a recent report from the team, they both might not be ready to make their season debuts when Week 5 rolls around on Oct. 5 against the New York Giants. The 35-year-old Hill can do it all for the Saints offense, but it's unclear exactly how he'll be used when he finally returns under new head coach Kellen Moore. Hill suffered his torn ACL in Week 13 of last year and can be ignored in fantasy drafts in 12-team leagues. Juwan Johnson will be the team's top pass-catching TE to open the year, but he won't draw much fantasy attention given the team's weak QB situation.
