Rams TE Tyler Higbee on his impressions of rookie Brycen Hopkins so far:
“He’s a great dude. A little quiet at first. I think that might be part of the rookie coming into a new environment, but a good dude. Great athlete. Already made strides from what I’ve seen.”
Rams TE Tyler Higbee on his performance during the 2nd half of the 2019 season and what “clicked” for him then:
“I just tried to do my job. I don’t know if anything clicked, I think some opportunities were presented to me more and I just tried to take advantage of them.”

“When it’s my turn to make a play and they’re trying to get me the rock, I try to do that. As a tight end, I take pride in being able to do everything a tight end can do – pass block, run block and the receiving game. So I’m working on all three phases every offseason.”
“We (Everett and I) just get that trench work in, and do what we’ve got to do to be complete tight ends to where you have to keep defenses guessing,” Higbee said. “Just cause we’re in the game doesn’t mean we’re going to run the ball, or pass the ball. So we kind of kind of keep them on edge, and having those different types of personnel in the game can create match-ups that we can take advantage of.”
