Rams declared QB Stetson Bennett, WR Tyler Johnson, CB Emmanuel Forbes Jr., RB Cody Schrader, OL Dylan McMahon, and OL Warren McClendon Jr inactive for Week 16 against the Jets.

No surprises here. Forbes has continued to be inactive since being claimed off waivers a month ago.
Tyler Higbee

LAR Tight End #89

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo said he is expecting “20 to 25 plays” for Tyler Higbee.

Higbee is finally ready to make his 2024 debut after suffering a torn ACL in the playoffs in January. He underwent surgery on his knee and, per Garafolo, also needed shoulder surgery in the offseason. The Rams have slow-played his return so far. Higbee has been practicing in full for multiple weeks but has been held out on Sundays as he gets up to full speed. They will continue to ease him back into action with a pitch count this week, keeping him off the fantasy radar entirely.
Tyler Higbee

LAR Tight End #89

Tyler Higbee (illness) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 16 against the Jets.

Higbee was activated from injured reserve earlier this week but then missed Thursday’s practice with an illness. He returned to the field on Friday and is ready to make his 2024 debut after missing the first three months of the season while recovering from the torn ACL he suffered in January. With Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp dominating the targets in LA, Higbee won’t crack the TE2 ranks for Week 16.
Tyler Higbee

LAR Tight End #89

Jordan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports that Tyler Higbee did not practice Thursday due to illness.

Higbee was activated off injured reserve Tuesday after missing the first 14 games of the season due to his ACL injury. Rodrigue notes that McVay will update Higbee’s status before Friday. It seems likely Higbee plays, but he’d be a dart-throw tight end — if that — for his debut against the Jets in Week 16.
Tyler Higbee

LAR Tight End #89

Rams activated TE Tyler Higbee (knee) off injured reserve.

Higbee is not a recommended waiver target with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua producing and commanding heavy target volumes, but it’s certainly not out of the realm of possibility that he can come back and be a low-end TE1 for the remainder of the season. He tore his ACL in January and spent almost the entire allotment of his 21-day window practicing with the team before being activated.
Tyler Higbee

LAR Tight End #89

Rams coach Sean Mcvay said he expected TE Tyler Higbee (knee) is expected to play in Week 16 against the Jets.

McVay noted that Higbee still needs to make it through next week’s practices without any setbacks and nothing is finalized ye. Still, all signs point to the veteran tight end making his debut in Week 16. Higbee has been practicing in full for multiple weeks as part of his return from the torn ACL he suffered in the playoffs last season. With Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua dominating the looks for LA, Higbee is not on the fantasy radar for his 2024 debut.
Cooper Kupp

LAR Wide Receiver #10

Cooper Kupp didn’t catch a pass while receiving three targets in the Rams’ Week 15 win over the 49ers.

Kupp received the first target of the game, and while he received two more chances, he essentially became a blocker on screens for Puka Nacua and the 29 rushing attempts for Kyren Williams. It’s the first time that Kupp has been held without a catch since November 10, 2019 against the Steelers. The 31-year-old will hope to be more involved against Week 16 against the Jets, but you have to acknowledge the risks.
Puka Nacua

LAR Wide Receiver #17

Puka Nacua caught 7-of-8 targets for 97 yards in the Rams’ Week 15 win over the 49ers.

Nacua’s line is fine — better than fine, really — but it’s a little misleading. Everything for the second-year wideout was short yardage until he was able to beat the San Francisco secondary on a busted coverage for a 51-yard gain. Still, it’s another game over 90 yards for the 23-year-old, and that’s a mark he’s hit in five of his last six opportunities. Nacua will be a WR1 for Week 16 against the Jets.
Matthew Stafford

LAR Quarterback #9

Matthew Stafford completed 16-of-27 passes for 160 yards in the Rams’ 12-6, Week 15 win over the 49ers.

Stafford was dreadful in the first half while completing just three passes — all for short yardage — and while he was better in the second half as the weather improved, it was still an ugly effort from a fantasy perspective. Close to a third of his yardage came on a 51-yard connection to Puka Nacua that came on broken coverage. At least he didn’t turn the ball over. It’s disappointing after Stafford was so brilliant in Week 14 against the Bills, but he’ll get a chance to rebound against the Jets in Week 16.
Kyren Williams

LAR Running Back #23

Kyren Williams 29 times for 108 yards in the Rams’ Week 15 win over the 49ers.

This was ugly, partially due to the rainy weather in Santa Clara, partially due to the short rest for both teams, and partially because, well, it just was. Williams was the most effective weapon for the Rams, and while he didn’t have any big gashes — a long gain of just 10 yards in the victory — he was able to keep the chains moving just enough. That’s now 58 carries over the last two games for Williams, and he’ll be happy to get a long break until Week 16 against the Jets.
