From the episode

What I saw from Jaden Higgins was really good... this was a team that did not let the rookie have too many snaps... I was just super bummed. I was bummed at the utilization... I'm hopeful, if you want to paint the narrative for how it works for Jaden Higgins, is now that he's not a rookie, he's got the experience... maybe they just say, you are on the two, on the outside. You're going to play 85 plus percent of snaps.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Higgins' year-two snap increase could unlock value after disappointing rookie usage.

Jaden Higgins passed the eyeball test but was disappointed in his utilization as a rookie; he didn't get as many snaps as expected and the team preferred veteran Christian Kirk. The source is hopeful that in year two, with experience, Higgins will play 85+ percent of snaps on the outside. Houston is favored in six of the first seven games, including a juicy early schedule against Buffalo, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Dallas, Tennessee, Jacksonville, and the Giants.
