Jayden Higgins vs Quentin Johnston: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Jayden Higgins and Quentin Johnston for your lineup, you are not alone. Jayden Higgins finished the 2025 season at 6.4 PPG for the Houston Texans (17 games), and Quentin Johnston averaged 10.4 for the Los Angeles Chargers (14 games).
That 4.0-point weekly advantage for Quentin Johnston is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jayden Higgins turned 68 targets into 525 yards and 6 touchdowns, while Quentin Johnston converted 85 looks into 735 yards and 8 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One scheduling note: Jayden Higgins is off Week 14 and Quentin Johnston Week 5. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
