Rams TE Tyler Higbee suffers injury to his lung

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee left Sunday's win over the New Orleans Saints with a chest injury, which turned out to be much more severe than initially thought.

Despite the gruesome status of his internal organ, Higbee isn't expected to miss much time.
