The Texans placed WR Nico Collins on IR. That knocks him out for at least the next four games vs. the Patriots, Packers, Colts, and Jets. Collins will be eligible to return for Week 10's game against the Lions. "While hamstrings can be tricky, the belief is that Nico Collins will be back sooner, rather than later," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport tweets.
When addressing WR Nico Collins' injury on Monday, Texans HC Demeco Ryans said, "it takes a couple of weeks for a hamstring, so we'll evaluate that on a week-to-week basis." It's not exactly a concrete timetable for Collins' return, but it sounds like the Texans are bracing for a potential multi-game absence. We'll keep an eye on Collins this week, but fantasy owners should at least prepare to be without him for this Sunday's game vs. the Patriots. Collins' absence would leave behind a ton of opportunity for WRs Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell. Xavier Hutchinson stepped in as Houston's No. 3 WR in the second half of last week's game but would be a desperation fantasy play.
The Texans consider WR Nico Collins "day to day" with the hamstring injury that knocked him out of Sunday's game vs. the Bills, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It sounds like Collins avoided a significant injury, although we'd still consider him iffy for Week 6's meeting with the Patriots. We'll keep you updated on Collins' status throughout this week. WRs Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell will get rankings boosts with Collins misses more time.
Texans WR Nico Collins is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Bills with a leg injury. His last play was a 67-yard TD. Collins made his way back to the locker room under his own power. We'll update his status when we know more.
Update: Collins has a hamstring injury.
Update: Collins has been ruled out.
Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 4 injury report. He was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday but put in a full workout on Friday. Collins should be ready for his usual role in Sunday's plus matchup vs. the Jaguars.
Texans WR Tank Dell (chest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He's reportedly dealing with painful bruised ribs. We'll see if Dell can make it back for Week 5's game against the Bills. It's unclear how Dell's snaps will be divvied between WRs Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods, and John Metchie. None is a viable Week 4 fantasy play. WR Nico Collins, WR Stefon Diggs, and TE Dalton Schultz could pick up extra targets with Dell out.
Texans WR Nico Collins was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a hamstring. That likely means Collins hurt the hamstring in practice today, which could put his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Jaguars in doubt. We'll update Collins' status again on Friday afternoon.
Texans WR Tank Dell is "unlikely" to play vs. the Jaguars this weekend, according to insider Aaron Wilson. Dell is dealing with "painful bruised ribs" suffered near the end of last week's loss to the Vikings, Wilson adds. The injury is not considered long term.
Texans WR Nico Collins (hip, foot) is not listed on the final Week 3 injury report. He went from no practice on Wednesday to limited on Thursday to a full workout on Friday. Collins is ready to roll for this weekend’s game vs. the Vikings.
Texans WR Nico Collins did not practice on Wednesday and is on the injury report with hip and foot issues. Collins seemed to make it out of Sunday night's win over the Bears OK, and insider Aaron Wilson reports that Collins is expected to play vs. the Vikings this weekend. He should stay penciled into Week 3 fantasy lineups for now.
Texans WR Nico Collins flashed his dominance with a stat line of eight catches on 10 targets for 135 yards and a TD. Collins remains QB C.J. Stroud’s favorite target, especially when he can draw one-on-one coverage, as seen on nearly every Bears blitz. Fear of Collins stats taking a hit with WR Stefon Diggs joining the team has been unfounded so far.
The Texans and WR Nico Collins agreed to a three-year, $72.5 million extension with $52 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero. The deal keeps Collins in Houston through the 2027 season. His $24.2 million average annual salary ranks seventh among WRs, in between DeVonta Smith and D.K. Metcalf.
