Karan Higdon (born September 8, 1996) is an American football running back for the Houston Texans of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Michigan.
Higdon grew up in Sarasota, Florida, and attended that city's Riverview High School where he rushed for 1,471 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on 218 carries. Higdon initially gave a verbal commitment to Iowa, but flipped his commitment to Michigan after a campus visit to Ann Arbor.
As a freshman for Michigan in 2015, Higdon appeared briefly in three games and totaled 19 rushing yards on 11 carries. As a sophomore in 2016, Higdon appeared in 12 games and had back-to-back 100-yard rushing games against Rutgers (108 yards on 13 carries) and Illinois (106 on eight carries). He totaled 425 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 72 carries for an average of 5.9 yards per carry.
During the 2017 season, Higdon was Michigan's leading rusher with 994 yards on 165 carries. On October 14, 2017, Higdon rushed for a career best 200 yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries. He became the first Michigan running back to rush for 200 or more yards in a game since 2007. On November 4, 2017, Higdon recorded his second 200-yard game of the season, becoming the first Michigan running back to record multiple 200-yard games in the same season since Mike Hart in 2004. Following his outstanding performance, Higdon was named the Co-Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week. Following the 2017 season, Higdon was named to the All-Big Ten offensive third-team, by both the coaches and the media.
