Rams TE Tyler Higbee Hospitalized After Playoff Injury

Higbee sustained a chest injury during the wild-card win against the Vikings, leaving his status uncertain for the divisional round against the Eagles.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee was hospitalized with a chest injury sustained during the team's 27-9 wild-card victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
Head coach Sean McVay confirmed Higbee is in stable condition but did not provide clarity on his availability for the upcoming divisional round game against the Eagles.
Higbee led the Rams in receiving during the first half, recording five catches for 58 yards before exiting the game in the second quarter.
This was only Higbee's fourth game of the season after recovering from a torn ACL and MCL sustained in last year's playoffs, which delayed his return until Week 16 of the 2024 season.
If Higbee is unable to play, backup tight end Colby Parkinson, who saw significant action earlier this season, is expected to take on a larger role in the Rams' offense.
