Tyler Higbee Clears Concussion Protocol, Dealing With Stinger

12 months ago

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (neck) has cleared the league's concussion protocol but is dealing with a neck stinger after taking a hard hit in the Week 13 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Higbee came out of nowhere for his first two touchdowns of the year in Week 12 and had two receptions on four targets for only 35 yards in the win over Cleveland before getting knocked out of the game. We'll have a better idea of whether Higbee can play in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens when the Rams begin practicing on Wednesday. Even if he's active, fantasy managers should consider him a low-upside TE2 in a tough matchup. Hunter Long and Brycen Hopkins would have bigger roles for the Rams at the position if Higbee misses any time.
