Top Nico Collins News

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Scores twice in return to lineup

    Collins caught seven of eight targets for 118 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.

    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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Cleared to play Sunday

    Collins (hamstring) was a full participant in Friday's practice and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    After opening the week with limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, Collins is ready to return from the hamstring injury 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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Practicing again Friday

    Collins (hamstring) was on the field for Friday's practice, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Limited once more Thursday

    Collins (hamstring) remained limited at Thursday's practice.

    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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Practicing again Thursday

    Collins (hamstring) is taking part in Thursday's padded practice, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

    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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Officially limited Wednesday

    Collins (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

    It was Collins' first practice 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.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Practicing Wednesday

    Collins (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    After Collins sat out Week 2 and Week 3 due to a strained hamstring, coach Demeco Ryans said Monday that the Texans were "hopeful" the wide receiver will be available this coming Sunday versus the Cowboys, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. Getting back on the practice field Wednesday is a step in the right direction for Collins, but how he progresses the rest of the week will determine whether or not he's able to suit up Week 4.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Coach 'hopeful' for Week 4 return

    Head coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that he's "hopeful" to have Collins available for the Texans' Week 4 game against the Cowboys, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Collins is working his way back from a Grade 1 hamstring strain, which has kept him from playing in either of the Texans' last two games. He hasn't practiced during the past two weeks either, so Collins would likely need to get back on the field as at least a limited participant at some point between Wednesday and Friday to have a realistic shot at suiting up against the Cowboys on Sunday. The Texans' playoff hopes have already taken a hit following an 0-3 start to the season, but the potential return of their No. 1 receiver could invigorate an offense that has struggled in his absence over the past two weeks.
