Stanford’s big-bodied mismatch with NFL-caliber versatility
In his 2022 season at Stanford, Elijah Higgins led the Cardinal with 704 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns, and his game stood out for size, catch radius, and reliable short-to-intermediate separation rather than pure burner speed[1][3]. Scouts liked that he could line up as a WR/TE hybrid and win YAC battles; his 4.54-second 40-yard dash at the 2023 NFL Combine backed up the “moves better than he looks” reputation[7][15]. If your team wants a physical, flexible target who can create matchup headaches, Higgins is absolutely worth the look.
