Jayden Higgins Out for Season After Suffering Torn ACL

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins will miss the remainder of the 2026 season after suffering a torn ACL. The injury has significantly impacted the team's receiving depth, prompting the Texans to acquire veteran wide receivers Zay Jones and Sterling Shepard, as well as trading for Kayshon Boutte. Higgins' absence is a major blow to the Texans' offense, as the team works to reorganize its receiving corps following the loss of the promising second-year player.
