The Seattle Seahawks were defeated 26-20 by the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9. The NFC West rematch is scheduled for the regular-season finale in Week 18. The Rams may be near full strength for that contest, with tight end Tyler Higbee returning to practice earlier this week.

Higbee has missed the entire campaign to date, but the Rams designated their pass-catching tight end to return to practice. That would signal a potential return for Higbee against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. He’ll provide Sean McVay’s offense with a much-needed boost.
Higbee has been recovering from torn ACL and MCL injuries suffered in the fourth quarter of the Rams’ wild-card playoff defeat against the Detroit Lions. Higbee recorded 47 receptions for 495 yards and two touchdowns in 15 appearances last season. The Rams signed Colby Parkinson at the position this offseason, but he hasn’t been as productive. Davis Allen and Hunter Long are also playing reps at tight end.
Expect Higbee to form an intriguing trio with Parkinson following his return. The Rams’ offense is getting healthier down the stretch of the 2024 campaign. The Seahawks must continue playing strong defense leading up to a potentially decisive Week 18 regular-season finale showdown.
