Jayden Higgins Fantasy Stats

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins continues to have a solid rookie season, and he has been able to establish himself as the team's second receiver during their current winning streak. Last week, Higgins had three catches on five targets for 34 yards. He has at least five targets and at least three catches in five straight games and has scored two of his four touchdowns this season during that span. Higgins hasn't posted huge yardage totals, but he's a big target by the goal line and is in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals, who have allowed four wide receiver touchdowns in the last two weeks. Higgins is a touchdown-dependent option this week, but he does bring some upside as the team's second receiver in a game where it should put up plenty of points. Higgins is the No. 46 WR in RotBaller's rankings for Week 15, making him a stretch even as a flex play outside of very deep formats. He is a player on the rise, though, so he definitely is worth monitoring as he finishes out his rookie year.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins has been providing both the Texans and fantasy managers with consistent production since Week 8. Over the past seven weeks, he has scored five or more fantasy points in six of his seven contests and has topped nine points or more in four of those seven games. More importantly, he has topped five or more targets in six of those seven games and has averaged six targets per game during that stretch. He has become the Texans' preferred No. 2 wide receiver option behind Nico Collins and over Xavier Hutchinson and Christian Kirk. While his ceiling remains relatively low, his floor remains consistent. In leagues that have multiple flex spots or three wide receivers, he is working his way into being a reliable option in those leagues. RotoBaller has him ranked as the WR46 heading into Week 15's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins posted a modest game in his team's Week 14 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, recording three catches for 34 yards on five targets. Still, the 22-year-old has established himself as the clear WR2 in Houston alongside Nico Collins, as he's earned at least five targets in five consecutive games and six out of his last seven contests. For the season overall, Higgins has hauled in 35 catches for 393 yards and four touchdowns on 55 targets across 13 games. With Houston's offense playing better football in recent weeks and its stellar defense consistently providing short fields, Higgins could be on the verge of a breakout game. Higgins profiles as a must-add wide receiver with a stable production floor heading into his Week 15 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins hauled in three of his five targets for 34 yards in his team's low-scoring, 20-14 win over the Chiefs on Sunday night. Higgins finished second on the team in receiving yards and targets behind only Nico Collins. Running back Woody Marks caught the only touchdown pass of the day from C.J. Stroud, but Higgins remains clearly the team's second receiver, playing well ahead of Christian Kirk and Xavier Hutchinson, who he has passed on the depth chart during the course of his rookie season. Higgins can be a deep-league option going forward, especially with favorable matchups the next few weeks.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins is having a strong second half to his rookie season, and he has emerged as enough of a threat to be on the radar in deep leagues. The early second-round pick has emerged as the team's second receiver behind Nico Collins in the last few weeks and has at least four catches in each of his four games during the team's current winning streak. In those four games, Higgins has totaled 18 catches on 28 targets for 200 yards and two touchdowns. He had a personal-best 65 receiving yards last week against the Colts and caught all five of his targets from returning QB C.J. Stroud. He should remain involved enough to be a fringe flex play this week against the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. It won't be an easy matchup, but if the Texans keep throwing the ball so much, the rookie has a solid chance to continue his production. He's the WR37 in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 14, so he is still best left on the bench in standard-sized leagues.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins has quietly built a fantasy starting role in recent weeks. In the past four games, Higgins has hauled in 20 of 28 targets for 200 yards and two touchdowns, including his career high in yardage in Week 13 with C.J. Stroud back under center. While star receiver Nico Collins will continue to handle the bulk of the targets in Houston, Higgins has been a sturdy option as well. The Texans face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14, who just allowed big games to George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb in Week 13. Higgins is a low-end starting option against the defending AFC champions.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins is deserving of more attention off the waiver wire as he cements himself as the team's WR2 behind Nico Collins for the final stretch of the season. In the 20-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, Higgins caught all five of his targets for 65 yards, which was second behind only Collins. It was another solid showing for the 22-year-old pass-catcher out of Iowa State after he had four catches on a season-high nine targets for 38 yards and his fourth touchdown of the year in last week's win over the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night. It was nice to see Higgins show plenty of chemistry in quarterback C.J. Stroud's first game back from a three-game absence due to a concussion. He now has 32 receptions for 359 yards and four TDs in his first 12 games, and Higgins should be viewed as an ascending WR4/flex option for fantasy managers going into a Week 14 showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins earned a season high of nine targets in last week's win over the Buffalo Bills, recording four receptions for 38 yards and a touchdown. Higgins could have had a much bigger day, but just narrowly missed on a few passes from quarterback Davis Mills. The rookie has emerged as a legitimate No. 2 option for Houston opposite Nico Collins, securing at least four catches in five of the last seven games. Higgins will look to continue his promising production in Week 13 against the Indianapolis Colts, with C.J. Stroud (concussion) making his return after missing the last three games. With his expanding role and growing target share, Higgins is a viable flex option in 12-team leagues for Week 13 and beyond.

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins hauled in four catches on his team-leading nine targets in Week 12 against the Bills. The rookie racked up 38 yards and scored his fourth touchdown of the year, while playing the second-most snaps of any receiver for the third straight week. He has at least four catches in five of his last seven games and three touchdowns in his last five games, as he has emerged as the second receiver in the offense while working with Davis Mills. Mills will be replaced by returning starter C.J. Stroud this week against the Colts, and Higgins will look to continue his strong second half of his rookie season. He's only the WR42 in RotoBaller's Wek 13 rankings, so he's still not quite a starter in most formats. However, he's been trending up and has a good ceiling in a critical AFC South matchup in Indianapolis thi Sunday.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins has seen at least seven targets in three straight games, cracking double-digit fantasy points in half-PPR formats twice in that stretch while finishing no lower than WR28. With that recent success coming on the receiving end of passes from Davis Mills, it remains to be seen if Higgins can maintain the same level of success following the return of quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion), who continues to work through the league's concussion protocol and was a full participant at Wednesday's practice. Higgins, however, topped a 13% target share in two of Stroud's last three fully healthy games, and the Texans face a Colts defense in Week 13 that has given up the fifth most fantasy points above expectation to the wide receiver position. With Higgins finding the endzone in three of his last five games, he has earned flex consideration regardless of who is under center.
