Tyler Higbee Status
rotoWire
Higbee caught four of seven targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss to Seattle.
What it means:
Higbee finishes the 2022 season with career highs in targets (108), catches (72) and receiving yards (620) but not touchdowns (three). The tight end turned 30 on New Years Day, and he's under contract with the Rams through 2023.
rotoWire
Higbee (elbow) brought in three of four targets for 11 yards in the Rams' 31-10 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
What it means:
Higbee tied Van Jefferson for the team lead in receptions, but as his final line indicates, that didn't amount to much on a day when Baker Mayfield netted only 111 passing yards. The veteran tight end didn't come close to matching his standout 9-94-2 line on 11 targets Christmas Day versus the Broncos that may have propelled some fantasy managers into their leagues' title games, but he'll have a chance to redeem himself in the Week 18 finale on the road versus a Seahawks defense that's given up solid production to tight ends this season.
rotoWire
Higbee (elbow) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
What it means:
Higbee was deemed questionable for the contest after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday, but the Rams' top tight end will give it a go versus the Chargers. Assuming no in-game setbacks, Higbee will look to build off the momentum he's built over his last two outings while working with signal-caller Baker Mayfield en route to hauling in 13 of his 16 targets for 121 yards and three touchdowns in that span.
rotoWire
Higbee (elbow) is expected to play Sunday against the Chargers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
What it means:
Coach Sean McVay told Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic as much Friday, so despite heading into the weekend as questionable for Week 17 action, Higbee will gut out an elbow injury that emerged Thursday. Higbee is on a bit of a hot streak the last two games, hauling in 13 of 16 targets for 121 yards and three touchdowns while working with new starting quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Tyler Higbee (elbow) expected to play in Rams' Week 17 matchup
What it means:
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (elbow) is expected to play in Week 17's game against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Despite his questionable designation, Higbee is on track to play in Week 17. In a matchup versus a Chargers' unit allowing 9.4 FanDuel points per game to tight ends, our models project Higbee to score 9.5 FanDuel points.
Higbee's projection includes 5.1 receptions for 50.0 yards on 7.8 targets.
rotoWire
Coach Sean McVay said Friday that Higbee (elbow) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
What it means:
On the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Higbee was listed as a resting player, but after the day off, he returned as a limited participant Thursday due to an elbow issue. McVay also told Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic that Higbee underwent an MRI that returned positive results, but the tight end still is entering the weekend with a designation. McVay does think Higbee will suit up Sunday, which won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.
