Jayden HigginsWRHOU
Possible late-round breakout candidate for 2026 as talented second-year wide receiver. In Weeks 8-18 of 2025, Higgins had seven finishes as WR3 or better in weekly scoring. During that 11-game stretch, among 119 qualifying receivers, ranked 24th in target per route run rate (24%), 38th in first downs per route run, 28th in yards per route run, and 25th in route win rate as perimeter receiver. If C.J. Stroud can be at least league-average passer in 2026, Higgins could be weekly WR2/3 or flex option; also has contingent upside if Nico Collins misses any time.
