For the last eight years, Tyler Higbee has been a pillar in the Los Angeles Rams franchise. While he may be considered overpaid at this point in his career, the veteran tight end has been a serviceable player for the team, finishing the last four seasons with at least 500 yards and 3 touchdowns, as well as a career-high 72 receptions just last year.
Since Cooper Kupp left Tuesday’s training camp with a leg injury, Higbee is once again letting the passing offense funnel through tight end, just as he did in the second half last season.
