Expert Note

It's impossible to trust Jayden Higgins as a flex play this week. Higgins has disappointed in each of the last three weeks with nice matchups. Yes, this is partially a CJ Stroud issue, but also Dalton Schultz is the clear WR2 in this offense. Higgins hasn't had more than three receptions or 34 receiving yards in a game since Week 13. This week, he faces a Bolts' pass defense that has allowed the eighth-fewest receiving yards per game and the fourth-fewest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Sit Higgins.

Jayden Higgins held to one catch Sunday

Jayden Higgins caught just 1-of-3 targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Las Vegas Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

The rookie was a non-factor for the Texans on Sunday, being held to just one catch in a narrow win over the Raiders. He has had an underwhelming season overall and is not fantasy relevant at this point in the year.
