The Rams announced the deal Friday for Higbee, the top receiving tight end in franchise history. He was a member of the Rams' first draft class after the franchise returned home to Los Angeles in 2016, and he has been a starter whenever healthy since his second NFL season.

Higbee is the Rams' career leader among tight ends with 317 receptions, 3,239 yards receiving and 20 touchdown catches. He set a franchise single-season record with 72 catches last season.
