News: 16 hours agoHigbee (illness) and Colby Parkinson (rib) have both been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, while fellow tight end Davis Allen (oblique) is listed as questionable, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Spin: With wideout Puka Nacua (knee) placed on injured reserve this week, there's renewed fantasy interest in the Rams' tight ends. Higbee has run a lot of routes without providing production in recent games, but both he and Parkinson could see more targets over the next few weeks, including Sunday in a favorable matchup with Arizona's subpar pass defense.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Higbee re-signed with the Rams and will battle for work with the likes of Colby Parkinson, Davis Allen, Terrance Ferguson and rookie Max Klare. The 2016 fourth-round pick has a pair of top-10 fantasy campaigns in his career, but the last one came in 2022 and he's finished 24th or worse in three consecutive seasons. Injuries have been part of the issue (21 missed games over the last two seasons), but so has a lesser role and minimal goal-line work (seven touchdowns and four end zone targets over the last three years). Now 33 years old, Higbee is likely third in line for targets at his position on his own team and, thus, nowhere close to fantasy relevance.
