Out with concussion Collins will not return to Monday's wild-card game against the Steelers.

Impact Collins hit his head hard off the turf on an incomplete pass late in the third quarter and was carted to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion. His performance ends with three catches for 21 yards. Assuming the Texans can hold onto their fourth-quarter lead, Collins will aim to clear concussion protocol in time for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against New England.

Shaken up against Pittsburgh Collins is questionable to return to Monday's wild-card game against the Steelers due to a head injury.

Impact Collins has had a couple of hard collisions during the game, and he most recently hit his head directly off the turf on an incomplete pass late in the third quarter. He struggled to get off the field and was carted to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion, so his return looks to be highly questionable. Collins recorded three receptions for 21 yards prior to his exit.

Impact Collins and veteran RB Nick Chubb were rested in the Texans' Week 18 win, with an eye toward keeping the duo fresh for the team's upcoming postseason run. With Collins currently not managing any injury concerns, he's set to reclaim his role as Houston's top wideout Monday, on the heels of recording a 71/1,117/6 receiving line (on 120 targets) in 15 regular-season contests.

Inactive Sunday Collins is inactive for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Colts.

Impact With Houston opting to rest Collins, Jayden Higgins, Christian Kirk, Xavier Hutchinson, Jaylin Noel and Justin Watson are available to handle the team's Week 18 WR duties. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Higgins and Noel are expected to have "solid" roles versus Indianapolis, while the Texans elect to preserve the health of their top WR ahead of the postseason. Collins' next game action is thus slated to happen in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

Impact Though they can still clinch the AFC South on Sunday with a win over the Colts and a loss by the heavily favored Jaguars to the 3-13 Titans, the Texans will instead prioritize their top wideout's health in Week 18 rather than potentially exposing him to an injury in the pursuit of a longshot bid for a division title. Even if Houston ends up making Collins active for the contest, he still doesn't appear likely to play any snaps. Expect the Texans to proceed with Jayden Higgins, Jaylin Noel, Christian Kirk and Xavier Hutchinson as their main options at receiver against Indianapolis.

Another modest performance Collins recorded three receptions on four targets for 57 yards in Saturday's 20-16 win over the Chargers.

Impact The Texans accounted for most of their offensive production on two deep touchdown passes on their first two possessions, and Collins wasn't on the receiving end of either. He was one of five Houston pass catchers to earn at least four targets, as CJ Stroud distributed targets evenly to his skill-position players. The end result was that Collins turned in a modest 57 yards, his second consecutive game with under 60 receiving yards.

A rookie's incredible performance couldn't stop the Raiders' skid

Inefficient outing Sunday Collins had four receptions on nine targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders.

Impact Collins finished as Houston's leading receiver on a team-high nine targets, but his production was muted by his worst catch rate (44 percent) since Week 10. The star wideout failed to take advantage of a soft matchup against the Raiders in a contest that wound up being much closer than many had anticipated. Collins had been on a three-game heater (12-304-2) prior to Sunday's pedestrian results, so fantasy managers in the thick of the playoff schedule are hoping for a bounce-back effort against the Chargers on Saturday.

Hauls in two TDs against Cards Collins caught three of four targets for 85 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 40-20 win over Arizona.

Impact The Texans' top wideout turned C.J. Stroud's first pass of the day into a 57-yard touchdown, setting the tone for the rout, and Collins then scored Houston's last TD with a four-yard grab in the fourth quarter. It was the first multi-score performance of the season, but he's been locked in since missing a Week 8 clash with the Niners due to a concussion. Over the last seven games, Collins has racked up a 38-662-3 line on 61 targets while also adding a score on the ground. Collins will look to keep rolling in Week 16 against the Raiders.
