Rashard Higgins: ‘The sky’s the limit’ with him in the Browns starting lineup

Rashard Higgins is back in the Browns starting lineup, and the wide receiver is ready to strut his stuff on the red carpet once again.

Higgins is the first player to get a crack at replacing the injured Odell Beckham Jr. in the lineup, starting opposite Jarvis Landry. And if Higgins has his way, he’s the only solution the Browns need. “Hollywood” showed a lot of confidence in his ability in his Zoom press conference with reporters on Thursday.

“I’m still in the starting lineup, as of now. I really don’t expect that to change,” Higgins said. “At the end of the day, I have to work for everything I ever got. If I had to work to get in this position, I’m going to do it. Here I am. To God give glory and I can’t be thankful for enough.”

Higgins continued,

“I’m going to keep working, keeping putting my head down, not get too big-headed on myself. The sky’s the limit.”

He does acknowledge it a slightly different sky than Beckham’s, however.

“We all run the routes just about the same, some people just run it faster. Odell was playing well, he’s a little faster, I’m a little slower. Baker’s got to slow the ball down for me a little bit.”
