Tyler Higbee - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Tyler Higbee - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

one year ago

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee looks to improve from his Week 1 performance. With Cooper Kupp (hamstring) out, Higbee was expected to take on a much more significant role, but that wasn't the case. The 30-year-old veteran caught all three of his targets for 40 yards; however, Higbee did play a promising 91% of all offensive snaps. While he does have a difficult matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, the increased volume will be enough for him to be fantasy-viable. Puka Nacua (oblique) is dealing with an oblique injury and could be limited in Week 2, which could force quarterback Matthew Stafford to lean on the veteran even more on Sunday. Higbee is a must-start in all leagues unless you have a top-five option at tight end.
