Who Should I Start? Wan'Dale Robinson or Jayden Higgins

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (leg) is participating in team portions of practice after being limited by a minor leg injury earlier in camp. The fourth-year wideout is expected to be the Giants' primary slot receiver this season. Robinson played in all 17 games for New York in 2024, recording 93 receptions for 699 yards and three touchdowns. As evidenced by his 7.5-yard-per-reception average, Robinson was almost exclusively utilized as a short-area target last season. As a result, he profiles much more favorably in PPR-scoring fantasy formats.

The Houston Texans released their first unofficial depth chart of the preseason on Tuesday, and rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins was listed as a starter next to Nico Collins and Christian Kirk. As we always say, take unofficial depth charts with a grain of sand in the preseason. It's a good sign for the 22-year-old second-rounder, but it hardly guarantees him a big role right away in his first NFL season in Houston. The Iowa State product was productive in college and showed plenty of athleticism at the scouting combine in February. The problem is that Collins should continue to be a target hog through the air in an offense with a shaky offensive line. It's possible that Higgins could continue ascending and leapfrog Kirk for WR2 duties, but that will likely take time. Consider Higgins a decent late-round dart throw for receiver depth in fantasy drafts.
