Nico Collins — Active

Collins was surprisingly quiet as C.J. Stroud spread the ball out to nine different targets, including six wide receivers. Collins remains atop the wide-receiver depth chart and hadn't dipped below 55 receiving yards in a regular-season appearance since Week 7 of last season. The star wideout's recent track record suggests Collins will likely bounce back in Week 9 against the Chargers following Houston's Week 8 bye.

InjuryActive11d ago

Nico Collins — Active

C.J. Stroud spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers, and Jaylin Noel wound up being the most productive of the bunch with a 4-107-1 line. Collins still hit for a 42-yard gain on his first catch of the day, helping to set up a Foster Moreau TD in the first quarter. Collins has topped 70 receiving yards in three of his four games this season, compiling a 22-323-3 line on 30 targets. He'll take on an injury-thinned Giants secondary at home in Week 7.

InjuryActive17d ago

Nico Collins — Active

The Texans got right on both sides of the ball in their first win of the season, with Collins leading the team in targets and tying Jaylin Noel for the lead in receptions while Xavier Hutchinson topped them both in receiving yards. The trio will get some additional competition as soon as a Week 6 clash with Jacksonville after Houston traded for Marvin Harrison on Sunday, but Collins should remain the top option for C.J. Stroud as long as he remains healthy. Through three games this season, Collins has a 19-249-3 line on 25 targets.

InjuryActive24d ago

Nico Collins — Active

Making his return from a two-game absence due to a hamstring strain, Collins led the Texans in catches, targets and scrimmage yards while hauling in C.J. Stroud's only two TD passes of the day. While Houston is a disastrous 0-4 to start the season, the offense has scored 61 points in the two games Collins has been active for and just 23 in the two games he missed. The star wideout will look to come up big again in Week 5 on the road in Tennessee.

InjuryActive26d ago

Nico Collins — Active

After opening the week with limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Collins is ready to return from the hamstring strain that cost him the previous two games. The alpha WR1 can be plugged right back into fantasy lineups ahead of a mouthwatering matchup with Dallas' porous secondary.

InjuryQuestionable27d ago

Nico Collins — Questionable

Collins has practiced in limited fashion this week after missing Weeks 2 and 3, and it appears he has a good chance to return this Sunday against the Cowboys. The Houston offense has looked slow and devoid of playmakers with Collins on the shelf. He'll immediately resume WR1/2 valuation in fantasy upon his return.

InjuryQuestionable27d ago

Nico Collins — Questionable

Collins has been limited in consecutive practice appearances as he works his way back from a hamstring injury that has sidelined him for the past two weeks. Houston's top option in the passing game has one more chance to upgrade to full participation Friday, which could help Collins avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's home game against the Cowboys.

InjuryQuestionable28d ago

Nico Collins — Questionable

After missing the Texans' last two games due a Grade 1 hamstring strain, Collins returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant. The Texans will release their second Week 4 injury report later Thursday, but Collins appears poised to at least maintain limited participation. If he can make it through the practice week no worse for the wear, the star wideout looks to be trending toward a return to the lineup this Sunday versus the Cowboys.

InjuryQuestionable28d ago

Nico Collins — Questionable

It was Collins' first on-field work since he was injured in practice ahead of Week 2, causing him to miss the last two contests. A limited start to the week is a good sign, but Collins will need to avoid setbacks before being counted on for Sunday's potential showdown with the Cowboys.
