Texans | Nico Collins catches seven passes Sun Dec 31, 06:13 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins caught seven passes for 80 yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 17. He was targeted eight times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Collins has had a breakout season with the addition of CJ Stroud to the offense. He and Tank Dell are going to be a signature wide receiver duo for this team next year. |

Texans | Nico Collins loves big role Sat Dec 30, 12:20 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins has logged nine-plus targets six times this season, and in those games, he is averaging 7.2 receptions for 125.7 receiving yards and has scored five times.
| Footballguys view: Collins (calf) was removed from the Week 17 injury report and will play against the Titans. With CJ Stroud back out there starting, the Texans' offense should be more robust as they push for a playoff berth. We like Collins as a low-end WR1 or high-end WR2 for Fantasy GMs playing for the championship in Week 17. |

Texans | Nico Collins officially limited Wed Dec 20, 05:28 PM
Updating a previous report, Houston Texans WR Nico Collins (calf) was officially limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 20.
| Footballguys view: Collins' status is the biggest thing to watch in Texans' practice this week. If he can't play again, then QB Case Keenum should target WR Noah Brown heavily. |

Houston Texans WR Nico Collins (calf) did not take part in practice on Wednesday, Dec. 20, head coach DeMeco Ryans said.
| Footballguys view: Collins missed Week 15, and he's not yet able to practice as the team prepares for a big game against the Browns in Week 16. If Collins has to miss another game, WR Noah Brown would be the no.1 target for QB Case Keenum on Sunday. |

| Footballguys view: A trio of Texans defensive starters sitting will only help Will Levis, Derrick Henry, DeAndre Hopkins, and Tyjae Spears. The Titans are set up for a successful day on offense against the defense that made Zach Wilson look good last week. |

Texans | Nico Collins sitting Wednesday Wed Dec 13, 01:36 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins (calf) is not participating in practice on Wednesday, Dec. 13.
| Footballguys view: There are a lot of questions surrounding the Texans' passing game as they prepare for Week 15 (and Fantasy GMs prepare for the first round of the fantasy playoffs). QB C.J. Stroud is in the league's concussion protocol, so even if Collins plays against the Titans (reports say he wants to) we're not even sure who will be throwing him the ball. Let's see what all of these banged-up Texans can do on Friday. |

Texans | Nico Collins will not return Sun Dec 10, 02:49 PM
Updating a previous report, Houston Texans WR Nico Collins (calf) will not return to the Week 14 game because of his calf injury.
| Footballguys view: The Texans pass offense was feeble without its top two receivers against a good Jets defense today. CJ Stroud also got hurt in this one. The Texans were making a move towards the playoffs in recent weeks, but the game against Tennessee next week suddenly looks far from a foregone conclusion. |

Texans | Nico Collins has monster game Sun Dec 3, 05:02 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins caught nine passes for 191 yards and one touchdown against the Denver Broncos in Week 13. He was targeted 12 times during the game.
| Footballguys view: With Tank Dell sidelined and Noah Brown maybe not 100% yet despite playing, almost everything in the pass offense ran through Collins. He'll have his hands full against Sauce Gardner and the Jets next week, but needs to stay in lineups. |

Texans | Nico Collins hits triple digits Sun Nov 26, 06:09 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins ended up with seven receptions for a game-high 104 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: Collins could face Patrick Surtain II a lot next week, but CJ Stroud is so hot, it will be hard to leave him on your bench. Watch Noah Brown's status next week to see if he'll return or sit again, leaving targets concentrated on Collins and Tank Dell, who also scored today. |

Texans | Nico Collins targeted 11 times Sun Nov 19, 04:41 PM
Houston Texans WR Nico Collins ended up with seven receptions for 65 yards on 11 targets in Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals.
| Footballguys view: Collins showed no ill effects from the calf injury that kept him out of Week 10. With CJ Stroud already playing like one of the best quarterbacks in the league, Collins should be in Week 12 lineups even if Noah Brown can return from the knee injury that kept him out this week. |
