News

  • Logs two sacks in loss

    Collins logged seven tackles (two solo), including two sacks, in Sunday's 15-13 loss to Carolina.

    Analysis: Collins had his best game of the season despite the loss, finishing fourth on the team in tackles and second in sacks. The 28-year-old took advantage of a poor Carolina offensive line and will look to build off this strong performance versus the Buccaneers next week.

  • Signs extension with Houston

    Collins and the Texans agreed Wednesday on a two-year, $23 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Collins is heading into his third year with the Texans and is coming off a season in which he posted a career-high 37 tackles to go with 3.5 sacks over 15 games. The 28-year-old will be a piece that Houston looks to build around on their defensive line for the next couple years.

  • Returning Sunday

    Collins (chest) is active Sunday against the Giants.

    Analysis: Collins has missed each of the team's last two contests. His return is good news for the Texans' defensive front, as Collins should see the majority of the snaps at defensive tackle next to Kurt Hinish.

  • Ruled out for Week 9

    Collins (chest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Collins was unavailable for the Texans' Week 8 matchup against Tennessee and was unable to return to practice this week. While he'll be forced to miss a second consecutive game, he'll have 10 days to recover before Houston takes on the Giants on Nov. 13.

  • Unlikely for Week 9

    Collins (chest) is not expected to suit up Thursday versus the Eagles, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Collins wasn't able to suit up versus the Titans in Week 8, and though he's making progress in his recovery from a chest injury, it looks like he's trending toward a second straight absence. If the veteran defensive tackle is indeed sidelined Thursday, he will then have an additional 10 days to get healthy ahead of Houston's matchup against the Giants on Nov. 13.

  • Ruled out

    Collins (chest) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Titans.

    Analysis: Collins was initially deemed questionable due to the chest injury, but he's been downgraded to out. In his absence, Kurt Hinish and Thomas Booker are candidates for increased snaps in Week 8.

  • Questionable with chest injury

    Collins (chest) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Tennessee, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: Collins is in jeopardy of sitting out his first full game of the season as he recovers from a chest injury he sustained during Houston's loss at Las Vegas in Week 7. If he can't go in Week 8, Kurt Hinish and rookie fifth-rounder Thomas Booker would be in line for some extra reps on the Texans' front four.

  • Will not return

    Collins (chest) is out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Raiders.

    Analysis: Collins suffered the injury in the first quarter and went straight to the locker room. Thomas Booker and Kurt Hinish will likely see extra opportunity with Collins out.

  • Questionable to return

    Collins is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Raiders due to a chest injury.

    Analysis: Collins went straight to the locker room after exiting Sunday's game in the first quarter, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to return. Thomas Booker and Kurt Hinish are candidates to see additional playing time in Collins' absence.

  • Avoids inactive list

    Collins (knee) is active Week 3 against the Bears.

    Analysis: Collins saw a downturn in production between opening week and Week 2, as he's been dealing with an unspecified knee injury that forced him to miss two practices this week. He'll still give it a go Sunday, but expectations as far as IDP production should be tempered.

  • Question for Week 3

    Collins (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against Chicago.

    Analysis: Collins did not practice Friday, as he's been dealing with an unspecified knee injury. It's unknown when the injury arose, as he was able to suit up for Week 1 and Week 2. The 27-year-old has played 81 of the team's defensive snaps through the first two games. Thomas Booker will possibly take over for Collins at starting defensive tackle alongside Roy Lopez Sunday against the Bears.

  • Returns to Houston

    Collins agreed to a two-year, $17 million deal with the Texans on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: During his first campaign with Houston, Collins totaled 29 tackles (18 solo), 2.5 sacks, one pass deflection, one interception and one fumble recovery across 15 appearances. He played over 50 percent of the team's defensive snaps in all but one game, seeing 49 percent against Arizona in Week 7, and Collins figures to fill a similar role for the Texans next season.

  • Won't face 49ers

    Collins (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Analysis: Collins was forced to miss the Texans' Week 16 matchup against the Chargers, but he was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday. His absence is likely due to conditioning, as he had served a key role along the Texans' defensive line this season by topping 60 percent of defensive snaps in the majority of games when available.

  • Back from COVID-19 list

    Collins (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Collins tested positive for the virus and was forced to miss the Texans' Week 16 matchup against the Chargers as a result. However, he should return for Sunday's game against San Francisco to play a key role along Houston's defensive line. Through 14 games this season, he's recorded 26 total tackles, 1.5 sacks and one interception.

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    Collins (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

    Analysis: Aaron Wilson of SportsTalk790 reports that Collins, along with Jacob Martin and Derek Rivers, tested positive for the virus. Collins has played at least 49 percent of the Texans' defensive snaps in every game this season, so his potential absence would be a big blow to Houston's defense.

  • Signs one-year deal with Texans

    Collins agreed to a one-year, $6 million contract with the Texans on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Collins spent last season with the Raiders after playing his first four campaigns in Dallas. He had 14.5 sacks over those four seasons with the Cowboys, so Houston's hoping for a bounce-back campaign from the defensive tackle after he failed to notch a sack in his stint with Vegas.

  • Back from injured reserve

    Collins (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve ahead of Saturday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old was designated to return from injured reserve earlier this week and rejoins the active roster after spending the three-game minimum on the shelf. Collins has only 12 total tackles and zero sacks despite starting 10 games this season.

  • Receives return designation

    Collins (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Josh Dubow of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old has already spent the three-game minimum on injured reserve, so he could be activated for Saturday's matchup with the Dolphins. Collins had 12 total tackles in 10 games before going down with the injury.

  • Lands on IR

    Collins (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: Collins will miss at least the next three games, and he'll aim to return to action for a Dec. 26 matchup against the Dolphins. The fifth-year defensive tackle has played at least 60 percent of the snaps on defense in six straight games. Maurice Hurst (ankle) appears up next to start at the position moving forward.

  • Back from COVID list

    Collins (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old was placed on the COVID list as a high-risk close contact earlier in the week, but it won't impact his availability for Sunday's contest. Collins should continue to play a significant role in Las Vegas' defensive line rotation.

  • Hits COVID list

    The Raiders placed Collins on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Collins was considered a high-risk close contact after Clelin Ferrell tested positive for the virus Tuesday. Collins will be eligible to play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs as long as he continues to test negative this week leading up to the game.

  • Active Sunday

    Collins (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Collins was listed as questionable after missing Week 5 with the shoulder injury, but he's good to go coming out of the bye week. The 25-year-old has three tackles through four games and should return to his starting role at defensive tackle.

  • Tagged as questionable

    Collins (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Collins missed the Week 5 win over Kansas City but appeared to make progress over the bye week as he was limited in practice all week. He's posted three tackles over four games this season, so his IDP value is negligible. If Collins is unable to play, Maurice Hurst is expected to start at defensive tackle.

  • Takes a seat Week 5

    Collins (shoulder) is inactive Week 5 against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Collins was only able to log one limited practice session this week, so he'll effectively end up sitting for the first game this season. With Maurice Hurst on the reserve/COVID-19 list and Daniel Ross (foot) on IR, the Raiders will be left with only Kendal Vickers and Datone Jones as the only true, healthy defensive tackles on the roster.

  • Suffers shoulder injury

    Collins is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills due to a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: As long as Collins remains sidelined, Maurice Hurst stands to see a sharp uptick in defensive snaps. Collins was forced off the field at the end of the third quarter.

  • Over thigh injury

    Analysis: Collins dealt with practice restrictions Wednesday due to a thigh injury, but he's now resumed operating in full capacity. The starting defensive tackle is set to suit up Sunday in Carolina.

  • Headed to Las Vegas

    Collins came to terms Wednesday on a contract with the Raiders, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After spending the first four years of his career in Dallas, Collins will now reconnect with former Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli in Las Vegas. The 24-year-old played a full 16-game slate in 2019 and registered 20 stops and five sacks, despite battling knee and foot injuries. He'll likely claim a starting role along the Raiders' defensive front.

  • Solid in trenches in 2019

    Collins completed the 2019 season with 20 tackles (15 solo) including four sacks and a fumble recovery.

    Analysis: A third-round pick in 2016, Collins has provided the Cowboys with a solid worker in the center of the defensive line over his four-year career. He's compiled 84 tackles including 14.5 sacks while only missing three games. Dallas has higher-priority free agents to worry about this offseason and a likely new defensive scheme under Mike McCarthy, so there's no guarantee the Cowboys will be interested in bringing back Collins even if he doesn't receive big offers from other teams looking to bolster…read more

  • Adds third sack of season

    Collins posted two tackles (one solo) and a sack in Monday's 37-18 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Collins collected his first sack since Week 4 on Monday, though he's now already matched his 2018 sack total of 3.0. He's gaining a bit of momentum with seven total tackles over the Cowboys' past two games after recording just one tackle per game in Weeks 2 to 6.
