Higbee secured six of seven targets for 62 yards during Sunday's 26-25 victory against the Giants.

Higbee played all but four snaps on offense, seeing his snap share spike to 96 percent after he'd been in the 70-75 percent range the prior two weeks. The veteran tight end was utilized early and often on the Rams' opening drive, snagging three catches for 48 yards en route to a Kyren Williams rushing touchdown, and while Higbee's production slowed down from there, he still had an encouraging performance against a defense that has been stingy against tight ends. How much action he will see in Week 18 against the 49ers is unclear, as the Rams have already locked up a playoff spot but can do no better than the No. 6 seed, while the 49ers have secured the No. 1 seed and will likely be resting their starters as much as possible.
