Jayden Higgins

Since Week 10, Jayden Higgins has been the WR24 in fantasy points per game. He has settled into a 60%-ish route share weekly. Last week, he had a 62.2% route share. Since Week 10, Higgins has had an 18.5% target share, a 30% target per route run rate, 50 receiving yards per game, 2.15 yards per route run, and a 22.2% first-read share. In his last four games, he has had four red zone targets and five deep targets. If Houston would allow him to play a 75-80% route share, he could be winning people weeks, but I'll take what we can get from Nick Caley. Higgins has been uber-efficient with his workload and drawing targets at a high level when on the field. Since Week 11, the Chiefs have utilized two high at the second-highest rate (61.9%). Since Week 10, against two high, Higgins has had a 30% target per route run rate, 2.28 yards per route run, and a 22.4% first-read share. Higgins should crush again this week. Since Week 9, the Chiefs have allowed the fifth-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers.

Jayden Higgins' role in the Houston offense has been growing. Since Week 11, he has had two top-24 weekly finishes (WR22, WR23). In Week 12, he had a 67.7% route share, a 30% target share, a 51.3% air-yard share, 38 receiving yards, 1.81 yards per route run and a 38.9% first-read share, per Fantasy Points Data. In Week 13, Higgins didn't post gaudy numbers but still had a 63.1% route share, a 14.2% target share and was second on the team with 65 receiving yards. Higgins doesn't have a tough matchup again until Week 17 against the Chargers. He's firmly on the WR3/Flex radar for the rest of the season.
