Based on 2025 production and our 2026 projection
Proven TE in his prime — production and runway both hold.
DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer
HoldHiggins caught 30 passes for 301 yards in 2025, finishing TE51. He scored about 14% less than his touches said he should. He's 26 with a quiet recent trend — no red flag, no spike either. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. This reads as a hold — nothing in the recent signal pushes it toward a buy or a sell.
