The 22-year-old Jayden Higgins (as of April 2025) is a wide receiver for the Houston Texans. The 34th overall pick from the 2025 NFL draft is a South Miami, Florida native who got his secondary education from Westminster Christian School. A two-sport athlete during his high school days, Higgins played both football and basketball. His high school achievements include being selected as all-county as a junior in 2019, as reported by Eastern Kentucky University Athletics. The 6'4 wideout had a production score of 78, which ranked sixth among all wide receivers at the 2025 NFL Combine, as per NFL’s official website.
Revisiting his post-high school career, Jayden Higgins represented both Eastern Kentucky and Iowa State during his collegiate career. While he showed flashes of brilliance during his time at Eastern Kentucky, he was not able to put up gaudy numbers during his two-year stay with the Colonels. His best season with the Colonels came in 2022, when he accounted for 757 receiving yards, as per Eastern Kentucky University Athletics. However, once he left the United Athletic Conference to go on to play in the Big 12 for Iowa State, Higgins' production skyrocketed. He not only topped the 1k-yard mark during the 2024 season but also came close to doing it in his very first season (983 receiving yards) as a Cyclone, as per Sports Reference.
