Houston Texans WR Jayden Higgins has been impressive in minicamp and is "pushing for a starting role," according to ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime, who adds that the rookie "could clinch that spot by the second week of training camp."
Huddle Up: The Texans' receiving corps will have a different look in 2025 with Christian Kirk replacing Stefon Diggs, and Tank Dell working his way back from a devastating knee injury suffered late in 2024. Dell's absence should open up a spot alongside Kirk and Nico Collins, which Bien-Aime clearly believes Higgins can fill. The second-round pick has excellent size (6-foot-4, 214 pounds) and projects as a good fit opposite Collins with Kirk working out of the slot. We saw what CJ Stroud could do as a rookie. With better protection and improved health from his receiving corps, this could be a bounce back year for Houston's passing attack. While Higgins isn't draftable right now, he's absolutely someone to monitor in camp as his upside is intriguing.

Iowa State WR Jayden Higgins was selected by the Houston Texans with the 34th overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Huddle Up: Higgins could see early playing time as a rookie with Tank Dell's availability uncertain. Fantasy players should keep an eye on him during training camp to have a better understanding of his role. He could be a late round pick in some fantasy leagues but probably will not be a starting option most weeks.
