[OC] In three of his past four weeks, Jayden Higgins has seen at least five targets and caught at least four balls. He has also out-snapped Xavier Hutchinson and Christian Kirk each of the last two weeks. Is his pedigree and size/speed combo finally turning into a relevant and much-needed role?

Hopefully. Even if he isn’t having the flashiest rookie season, he reminds me how Nico Collins was the first 2 seasons.
Jayden has the most size and probably only Jaylin Noel is faster he is such a big target needs to play every snap
Higgins, Noel, and Marks need to be fed consistently. They make shit happen when they’re targeted, returning kicks, rushing, etc.
He’s had an understated rookie campaign so far but he passes the eye test on the field. Great routes, tracking, hands, and blocking too. You can tell he’s only going to get better and put up more impressive numbers as his usage increases
We really got nico collins 2 before gta6
When do they stop giving snaps to Christian Kirk? He provides nothing. Doesn’t make any tough catches and can’t get separation when covered by a linebacker.
Higgins is Nico 2.0. Dead ass.
He’s really coming along the last few games, I’ve been very happy with his growth. And if this is the floor of his potential, I’m very excited as the years go on.
(I’m also aware that growth isn’t always linear)
He’s got a high ceiling sure… He’s got a few skills.. coached up at Iowa state, decent hands, has shown flashes of great separation in man coverage. Drafted round 2 receiver, got a big frame, yeah yeah, big deal. Thats nothing special in today’s league… etc..
That’s what the league says.
But everyone who knows and has seen Higgins, knows he’s about the HTOWN.
He’s gonna be something special.
Can’t wait to see Higgins go off once he realizes how much he hates the Colts.
bout damn time! now just do noel too plz
They are attacking the 1v1 teams are giving him more. Much like Nico he’s a matchup headache giving his size and speed. As he improves as a route runner he’ll get more chances.
He’s still learning the playbook; routes and blocking assignments. He’s still learning how to get off press coverage in the NFL. He’s still learning how to fight to make contested catches. He’s still gaining the trust of his teammates. He’s a rookie. Give him time. He’ll get there.
Kirk is one of the worst signings. Higgins, Noel and even Berrios have outplayed him.
