Along with Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp and Matthew Stafford, Tyler Higbee heads into the 2023 season as one the few veterans on the Rams’ roster. He’s an experienced tight end who can block and split out as a receiver, and though he’s lost a step at the age of 30, he’ll be there to contribute just about every Sunday.
From a leadership perspective, as well as an on-field viewpoint, Higbee is one of the Rams’ most important players this year. He can give Stafford a safety blanket in the middle of the field and take away some attention from Kupp, taking advantage of the single-coverage he gets from linebackers.
