Tyler Higbee Has Tough Matchup In Week 4
2 years agoLos Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee found the end zone in both of his regular season games against the San Francisco 49ers, his Week 4 opponent, last season. Overall, he caught 11 passes for 93 yards and three touchdowns in three games, including the NFC Championship, against his divisional rivals. The 49ers are a tough defense, especially on opposing tight ends. They have allowed the fewest fantasy points to tight ends of any team in the league. But they were among the top 10 in limiting tight ends in 2021, too, and that didn't stop Higbee. Despite being overlooked going into the season, Higbee has been the Rams' second-leading pass-catcher and has finished as a top-15 TE every week. Higbee's Week 4 matchup is on the tougher side, but there is a lot of variability in weekly tight end production, and Higbee could be a TE1 on any given week.
