Tyler Higbee Unlikely To Practice Early In Week
3 years agoLos Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) is not expected to suit up for any of the team's practices early in the week ahead of Super Bowl LVI on Sunday. Higbee injured his knee during the NFL Championship Game, hauling in two receptions for 18 yards prior to his departure. Kendall Blanton emerged in place of Higbee and brought in five catches for 57 yards in his own right, a role that he would be likely to reprise for the big game if Higbee is ultimately held out. A vital member of L.A.'s offense, Higbee tied his career high in 2021 by bringing down five touchdown catches across 15 games. Managers eyeing him in DFS will want to check back later in the week to see if he is able to return to the practice field in some capacity.
