Higbee played 72% of the snaps for the Rams last season, which led the tight end position by a substantial amount. That said, Gerald Everett out-targeted Higbee 50 to 33 despite playing only 35% of the snaps.
The tight end position is rarely used in the Rams’ scheme since they run most of their offense through 3-WR sets. Their 84 targets to tight ends ranked just 27th in the league in 2018. — Justin Bailey
