Drafted 34th overall in 2025, Higgins entered the NFL as an exciting prospect with a 9.63 RAS score and was touted as an ace ball-tracker with expansive catch radius. He finished his rookie campaign third on the team in targets behind Nico Collins and Dalton Schultz with 68 opportunities, but matched Collins' six touchdowns. When Collins was sidelined, Higgins stepped up with either 10 looks or scoring in Weeks 8, 18 and the divisional playoff round. With Christian Kirk's departure, Tank Dell's rehab process and Collins' lower-body injury history, Higgins figures to be more heavily featured in 2026.
