Jayden Higgins is the Houston Texans number 81 wide receiver, a second-year pro, and finished the 2026 regular season as a low-end fantasy option at his position. He averaged 6.4 fantasy points per game across 17 appearances, though he currently sits outside our ranked 2026 draft board at wide receiver. That per-game number is the starting point for every start or sit decision you make with him in 2026.
Jayden Higgins finished 2026 with 41 receptions for 525 yards and 6 touchdowns. He drew 68 targets, a workload that anchors his weekly floor without quite hitting alpha status.
