Tyler Higbee at Las Vegas — Streaming Appeal Grows Amid Rams Receiver Injuries

Higbee serves as Los Angeles' starting tight end and has established a dependable underneath role, catching 9 of 10 targets for 105 yards over his last two contests. While he suffered a costly fumble in last week's loss to Arizona, his target outlook receives a boost with Davante Adams sidelined on injured reserve.

Traveling to Las Vegas for a projected high-scoring indoor matchup, Higbee has seen his roster rate jump past 50%. Our weekly projection pegs him for 3.6 receptions, 37.2 receiving yards, and 5.4 fantasy points. With target competition thinned out, Higbee stands out as a solid streaming option for managers needing tight end help.

Outlook Dylan Sampson

Dylan Sampson at Tennessee — Trending toward a return from injured reserve

Browns head coach Todd Monken anticipates Sampson suiting up against Tennessee after the running back practiced in a limited capacity all week. Operating as the primary backup behind Quinshon Judkins, who has also been managing an ankle issue, Sampson is poised to rejoin the backfield rotation following his stint on injured reserve.

Our projections currently reflect zero points while awaiting his activation, matching fantasy sentiment where he is rostered in 15% of leagues and started in virtually none. While Monken's optimism is encouraging, managers should check back before kickoff to confirm his status and keep him safely on fantasy benches until his workload stabilizes.
