Tyler Higbee has full practice, could return this week

Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) was estimated as a full participant Monday as he seeks to return Thursday night.

Higbee has not played this season after tearing his MCL and ACL in the 2023 postseason. He remains on the reserve/physically unable to perform list but returned to practice Nov. 27.

Coach Sean McVay said "we'll see" about Higbee's availability for Thursday night against the 49ers.

"I don't have a great sense of it," McVay said, via Stu Jackson of the team website. "That was always something we left open as a possibility but certainly don't want to rush it."

Cornerback Cobie Durant (chest), defensive end Tyler Davis (calf), wide receiver Jordan Whittington (shoulder), tight end Davis Allen (shoulder), wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (shoulder) and offensive lineman Beaux Limmer (knee) were estimated as non-participants.

Durant has a bruised lung.
