Who Should I Start? Parker Washington or Jayden Higgins

The Jacksonville Jaguars face the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football in what should be a difficult game. That could mean the offense struggles quite a bit, but it could also mean plenty of targets for a receiver like Parker Washington. Washington had a down week in Week 4 after 76 receiving yards in Week 2 and 11 targets in Week 3, making him a risky play. However, he has at least shown himself capable of producing in the inconsistent Jaguars offense, albeit with limited upside. Washington is fine to roster, but better left on the bench in Week 5 against the tough Chiefs' secondary.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins had the best game of his young NFL career in his team's Week 8 win over the San Francisco 49ers, recording four catches for 34 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The 22-year-old has now hauled in 13 catches for 155 yards and two scores on 21 targets. Before Week 8, Higgins had not earned more than four targets in any game this season. It's worth noting that veteran Texans wideouts Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) were both sidelined against San Francisco, which certainly factored into Higgins' breakout game. However, Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has attempted 88 passes over the team's last two games, which could signal that there will be more opportunity for Higgins even when Collins and Stroud return. In deeper leagues where available, Higgins could be worth stashing for his second-half breakout potential.
