Rodgers and Higgins Playing Time

I haven't really noticed. How much playing time have Rodgers and/or Higgins gotten so far as receivers? Are one or both going to be redshirted do you think?
I just think of Sammy Watkins. When he was a true freshman he was on his way to being a 1st team All-American. That says a lot for our depth if these two expected stars aren't getting to play.

They have both played and neither will red shirt. Expect them to get plenty of snaps this week. I expect Higgins to turn into a redzone target.

Once they play, they cannot redshirt unless they get hurt and you get a medical red shirt

I think with the depth of talent and recruiting ability,

the coaches don't expect a lot of these players to stay the full four years so they aren't redshirting them. They'll get there touches as they become more familiar with the system and gain more trust from KB. Even though they're not getting many touches right now, they're getting valuable playing time. With any position, and especially WR, it is just as important what you do without the ball as it is with the ball. They'll have plenty of teaching points from the tape of them in real game situations.

I Don't think anyone expected them to play a lot against UL or Auburn right off the bat, but easier games are coming up and freshman and 2nd string players should get reps and experience. VT will probably be a game that our trusted guys play more.

SAMMY REALLY HARD NO EQUAL IN FRONT OF HIM SO IT WAS HIS FOR THE TAKING.... RODGERS AND HIGGINS HAVE 1 OR 2 PLAYERS AT THEIR POSITION WHO ARE JUST AS GOOD AS THEM BUT THEIR TIME WILL EVENTUALLY COME.

They are both going to be fantastic. However, they do have awesome WRs who have been in the system longer. I assume they are still learning the system. By the end of the year, they will be ready to dominate because I assume they will see a lot of playing time.

Both played a bunch against KSU. Against Louisville Higgins had a catch when the game was still be contested and Rodgers went back to return a punt late.
I imagine they will get more PT as the season goes on.

I'm not trying to be rude, but do you watch the games? If so, how can you not know this? Just wondering.
