Romeo Doubs News
Thursday, August 6, 9:33 AM
New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs remained absent from Thursday's practice, according to Taylor Kyles. Doubs also missed Wednesday's walkthrough, and the team has not given a reason for either absence. The 26-year-old joined New England after catching 55 passes for a career-high 724 yards and six touchdowns with Green Bay last season. His absence has opened first-team work for Efton Chism III, who filled in during Wednesday's session. With no injury or timetable reported, Doubs' status is worth tracking when the Patriots return to the field Friday.

Jayden Higgins News
Thursday, July 30, 8:33 AM
Houston Texans second-year wide receiver Jayden Higgins has been seeing early targets in training camp practice from quarterback C.J. Stroud, and head coach DeMeco Ryans said he's seen Higgins take a Year 2 jump, according to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle. Ryans envisions Higgins becoming a weapon opposite WR1 Nico Collins. All signs have been pointing to the 23-year-old pass-catcher taking a leap in Year 2 after he caught 41 of his 68 targets for 525 yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (10 starts) as a rookie. The former second-rounder from Iowa State could really take the next step if Collins, who is no stranger to injuries, misses more time with an injury in 2026. Higgins has consistently drawn praise this year, dating back to offseason workouts. He could really benefit from the Texans' upgrades on their offensive line and the departure of veteran wideout Christian Kirk. Higgins is ranked at No. 55 among WRs by RotoBaller, but his draft stock should continue to rise if he keeps standing out in training camp this summer.
