Tyler Higbee vs. Cardinals — Surging Target Share Brings Streaming Appeal

Despite sitting behind Colby Parkinson on the depth chart, Higbee has carved out a noticeable receiving role with 10 catches for 150 yards on 12 targets over the last two weeks. He avoided any injury designation following a physical contest against Philadelphia and enters Week 6 completely healthy.

The Rams host Arizona in a clash expected to be high scoring, offering solid offensive upside. Our weekly projection forecasts Higbee for approximately 3 receptions and 32 yards with scoring upside, making him an attractive streaming option as his fantasy roster rate surges past 30%.
