NICO COLLINS NEWS

Third 100-yard performance Collins recorded four receptions on eight targets for 121 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chiefs.

Impact Collins was the only Texans' pass catcher to make a significant impact in a defensive showdown. He was unsurprisingly C.J. Stroud's favorite target, and he did the majority of his damage on long catches of 53 and 46 yards in the first half. After an inconsistent start to the season, Collins now has at least 75 receiving yards in five of his last six games and has topped 100 yards in three contests on the campaign.

Just under 100 yards in win Collins brought in five of 10 targets for 98 yards in the Texans' 20-16 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also rushed once for seven yards.

Impact Collins finished as the Texans' leader in receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, logging his sixth double-digit target tally of the season while coming just short of what would have been his third 100-yard effort. The veteran wideout has at least 75 receiving yards in four of his last five games. with three of those performances featuring 90-plus-yard efforts. Collins should be in line for another expansive role in a Week 14 road showdown against the Chiefs next Sunday night.

Held in check after halftime Collins brought all three targets for 55 yards in the Texans' 23-19 win over the Bills on Thursday night.

Impact Collins finished as the team leader in yardage on the night, but all of it came on his three first-half catches. The talented wideout was part of the collateral damage of a modest passing night on the part of Davis Mills, who completed only 53.3 percent of his passes for 153 yards and averaged 5.1 yards per attempt. Collins was coming off a two-game heater while working with Mills -- one where he posted a 16-128-1 line on 25 targets -- so Thursday's downturn was particularly noteworthy. Collins is now slated to return to working with C.J. Stroud when the Texans return to action in a Week 13 road divisional clash against the Colts on Sunday, Nov. 30, as the latter should be cleared from his concussion by that point.

Impact Collins has been a key factor in the Texans getting to .500 for the season. A coaching decision to scheme him open appears to have worked. During the two-game streak, he's been targeted seven from the slot, more than he had in his first seven games combined, and those targets have led to success. Collins caught a pivotal fourth-quarter pass for 22 yards in the Week 10 win over Jacksonville and had three catches for 31 yards from the slot, including a touchdown, in Week 11's win over Tennessee. Collins and the Texans will be challenged to repeat that success this week in Thursday's night game against the Bills, who rank second in the NFL with 169.7 passing yards allowed per game.

Turns in full practice Collins (ankle) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

Impact Houston estimated Collins as a limited participant for Monday's walk-through session, but the wideout has cleared up any concern about his availability for Thursday's game against the Bills by taking every rep during Tuesday's session. For the third straight week, Collins will be on the receiving end of throws from quarterback Davis Mills, who will make another start while C.J. Stroud remains in concussion protocol.

Limited by ankle issue Collins was limited at Monday's walkthrough due to an ankle injury.

Impact Collins previously dealt with a knee issue and a concussion this season, so this is a new health concern for the fifth-year pro. He'll have two more chances to get back to full this week before the Texans potentially tag him with a designation for Thursday's game against the Bills. Meanwhile, C.J. Stroud (concussion) was a DNP on Monday, meaning Davis Mills seems poised for another start under center in Week 12. Working with Mills the past two contests, Collins put together a 16-228-1 line on 25 targets during that span.

Paces pass catchers in win Collins brought in nine of 10 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 16-13 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Impact Collins flashed strong chemistry with Davis Mills, setting the pace for the Texans in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The talented wideout also was on the receiving end of Mills' only touchdown pass of the day, recording a three-yard grab just past the halfway point of the third quarter. C.J. Stroud (concussion) may have a difficult time clearing protocol in time for Thursday night's Week 12 matchup against the Bills, and that could potentially be a positive development for Collins considering he's posted a combined 16-228-1 line on 25 targets with Mills as the full-time starter in the last two games.
