Rams' Tyler Higbee and Konata Mumpfield Highlight Week 7 Fantasy Sleepers
In Week 7, the Los Angeles Rams face challenges with Davante Adams sidelined due to a hamstring injury and Puka Nacua's status uncertain due to a calf issue. This situation creates opportunities for other players to step up in the passing game.
Tyler Higbee and Konata Mumpfield are positioned as potential fantasy sleepers. Higbee has shown consistent performance, scoring at least 11.7 PPR points in three of his last four games. He previously excelled in a game against Denver when Nacua was unavailable, recording eight catches for 62 yards and a touchdown. The matchup against the Raiders is favorable, as they rank high in fantasy points allowed to tight ends.
Mumpfield has also been a notable option, particularly with Adams on injured reserve. He had a strong performance in Week 3, achieving four catches for 93 yards and a touchdown. If Nacua is unable to play, Mumpfield could be a viable starter in three-receiver leagues, given the favorable matchup against a defense that has allowed multiple touchdowns to receivers this season.
