Nick Westbrook-Ikhine News

Colts Sign Receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine

Wednesday, March 18, 1:28 PM

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Wednesday that they signed free-agent wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine to an undisclosed deal. Westbrook-Ikhine had a career year in 2024 in his final year with the Tennessee Titans, catching 32 of his 60 passes for 497 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games played (nine starts). The 28-year-old spent last season with the Miami Dolphins and came back down to Earth in a big way with only 11 receptions on 20 targets for 89 yards and no touchdowns in 15 games (three starts). Michael Pittman Jr. is no longer in Indy, but at best, Westbrook-Ikhine will be the team's No. 3 wideout to begin the 2026 campaign behind Alec Pierce and Josh Downs. Target-wise, he'd be fourth on the totem pole with tight end Tyler Warren also in the mix. Expect the former undrafted free agent out of Indiana to battle for the WR3 role with Ashton Dulin, Anthony Gould, and Laquon Treadwell.

Jayden Higgins News

Jayden Higgins "Going to Have a Great Year"

Monday, June 8, 5:25 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins has reportedly been standing out during the team's organized team activities and is a player to watch as the Texans move into the next phase of the offseason program. The 2025 second-round pick drew the praise of head coach Demeco Ryans for the improvements he's made since his rookie season, while team reporter Aaron Wilson wrote that he's "displaying signs that he could be poised for a breakout", with both commending his increased strength and play speed. Ryans went so far as to say, "He's going to have a great year. Can't wait to see it." Higgins finished his rookie season with 525 yards and six touchdowns on 42 receptions, playing some of his best ball down the stretch and through two postseason games, and at RotoBaller's WR55, he could become a steal in the late rounds of 2026 redraft leagues.
