Texans: 5 wide receivers Houston should consider trading for after Jayden Higgins' injury
The Houston Texans are in win-now mode, so any option should be considered when trying to go for all. Here's five wide receivers they should try to target.
The Houston Texans are currently focusing on winning, necessitating a pursuit for a new wide receiver, specifically a secondary option to Nico Collins. Jayden Higgins, a first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, is currently out for the season due to a torn ACL, having suffered an injury during a practice against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Higgins had shown promise, contributing 525 receiving yards and six touchdowns in his rookie season. The Texans will now rely on Xavier Hutchinson, Lewis Bond, and Jaylin Noel as potential alternative receivers. However, these players have yet to prove themselves as reliable secondary weapons. Consequently, the team may consider trading for a capable wide receiver, either through free agency or during the transfer window.
