Who Should I Start? DeVonta Smith or Jayden Higgins

Friday, November 14, 10:37 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith is looking more and more like the true first option in the Philly passing game after outperforming and out-snapping A.J. Brown against the Packers. Smith has now led his team in receiving yards in five of their nine contests-including the last three in a row-while Brown has done so only once. In Week 11, the Lions travel to Lincoln Financial Field boasting a defense that has not allowed a 100-yard receiver in their last four games. Smith has put up more than 14 points in PPR formats in four of his last five performances, but he'll have his work cut out for him on Sunday night. His target numbers have gotten higher and more consistent after the first four weeks of the season, making him a more reliable WR2 for this week and the foreseeable future.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins turned in the best performance of his young career in Week 10, catching five of seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the 36-29 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 2025 second-round pick has struggled to carve out a consistent role in Houston's offense, often seeing limited snaps behind the team's other outside receivers. However, for just the second time this season, Higgins outsnapped Xavier Hutchinson, who has played 66% of the team's offensive snaps overall. If Higgins continues to earn more playing time, he could emerge as the Texans' WR2 and a sneaky fantasy contributor down the stretch. He'll look to build on his momentum in Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans.
