On track with recovery
Collins has experienced no setbacks with his recovery from the right hamstring injury he sustained Oct. 6, and the expectation remains that he'll be able to return from injured reserve when first eligible Nov. 10 against the Lions, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Collins was given a projected 3-to-4-week recovery timeline after suffering the injury, but the Texans opted to err on the side of caution by placing him on IR, which ensured that he would miss at least four games. With Collins' recovery thus far going swimmingly, he looks like he'll be able to step back in as the Texans' No. 1 wideout in a couple weeks, provided he's not slowed by the hamstring injury once he eventually returns to practice in Week 10.

Placed on IR
The Texans placed Collins (hamstring) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Collins will miss at least four games due to the hamstring injury he sustained in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Bills. As a result, Collins won't be eligible to return to action until the Texans' Week 10 matchup with the Lions on Nov. 10. The star wideout currently leads the NFL with 567 receiving yards, making his loss a tremendous blow for CJ Stroud and the Texans passing offense, but Houston has a deep enough receiving corps to feel confident in the abilities of Stefon Diggs, Tank Dell, Xavier…read more

Called week-to-week by coach
Coach DeMeco Ryans called Collins (hamstring) week-to-week Monday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. "It takes a couple of weeks for a hamstring," Ryans said. "So we'll evaluate him on a week-to-week basis."
Analysis: Collins' week-to-week status casts doubt on his availability for Sunday's game against the Patriots, though more clarity on his potential availability should surface when the Texans submit their first practice report Wednesday. Ryans originally labeled Collins day-to-day after the star receiver was injured in this past Sunday's 23-20 win over Buffalo, but the slightly less optimistic week-to-week assessment seems more realistic. Despite exiting in the first half against Buffalo, Collins leads…read more

Viewed as day-to-day
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said after Sunday's 23-20 win over the Bills that Collins is day-to-day after exiting the game with a hamstring injury, Kristie Rieken of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Collins played just nine snaps and produced a 2-78-1 line on his two targets before exiting the game early in the second quarter, when he tweaked his hamstring while legging out a 67-yard touchdown. Though the day-to-day label offers hope that Collins might be ready to return to action for Sunday's game against the Patriots, the receiver's history of soft-tissue injuries could prompt the Texans to exercise some caution. Collins missed two games last season due to a calf strain and a recurrence…read more

Won't return Sunday
Collins (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the Bills.
Analysis: Collins thus finishes up the day with two catches for 78 yards and a touchdown. In his absence, Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell are in line to lead the Texans' wideout corps for the rest of the day.

Injures hamstring Sunday
Collins exited Sunday's game against the Bills with a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Prior to that, Collins caught both of his targets for 78 yards and a TD. In his absence, Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell are slated to lead the Texans' Week 5 WR corps, with Robert Woods, Xavier Hutchinson and John Metchie available to mix in.

Career day in Sunday's win
Collins caught 12 of 15 targets for 151 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: The dozen receptions were a career high for Collins, while his season-high yardage marked the fourth time in 19 career games with C.J. Stroud as his QB that he's topped 150 yards. Collins has hit triple-digit yardage three times in four contests to begin the current campaign, and his 30-489-2 line on 43 targets makes him the first player in Texans history to amass at least 450 yards in the first four games of a season.

Clear for Week 4
Collins (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
Analysis: The Texans tacked on Collins to their Week 4 practice report Thursday as limited due to a hamstring injury, which occasionally is a worrisome sign for upcoming availability. The fourth-year wide receiver put any questions about his status to rest earlier Friday, telling Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, "Oh, absolutely," when asked about his ability to play Sunday. Collins also logged a full practice Friday, so he'll look to build upon his NFL-leading 338 receiving yards this weekend against a…read more

Practicing Friday
Collins (hamstring) was present for practice Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Collins was added to the Texans' Week 4 injury report after being limited Thursday, but his presence for Friday's practice is a positive sign in terms of his availability for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. The team's upcoming injury report will reveal whether Collins heads into the weekend with an injury designation or fully cleared to face Jacksonville.

Collins (hamstring) was limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Collins practiced fully Wednesday, so his appearance on the Texans' injury report a day later is notable. Friday's final report will add further context regarding the wideout's availability ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Meanwhile, fellow WR Tank Dell (chest) logged his second straight DNP on Thursday, which clouds his Week 4 status.

Tops 80 yards in loss
Collins caught four of 10 targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: While the fourth-year wideout wasn't able to record his third straight 100-yard game to begin the season, Collins still put together a productive effort on big target volume. Four of his incompletions also came on the final drive of the day with Davis Mills under center rather than C.J. Stroud. Collins will look to put together a more efficient performance in Week 4 against the Jaguars.

Ready for Sunday
Collins (hip/foot) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest in Minnesota.
Analysis: Collins was held out of drills Wednesday due to hip and foot injuries, but he returned as a limited participant one day later before capping Week 3 prep with a full session Friday. He's thus set to build upon an NFL-leading 252 receiving yards through two games, facing a Vikings defense that ranks 16th in the league in terms of YPT (7.5) to opposing wide receivers this season.

Logs limited practice
Collins (hip/foot) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Collins didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field Thursday in a limited capacity bodes well for his chances of being available Sunday against the Vikings. The wideout will presumably need to practice fully Friday, however, in order to avoid taking an injury designation into Sunday.

DNP due to hip and foot injuries
Collins was held out of Wednesday's practice with hip and foot injuries, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Collins didn't provide any evidence of being limited by injury during Sunday's 19-13 win over Chicago, as he logged 84 percent of the offensive snaps while leading the Texans in routes (36), targets (10) and receiving yards (135). He leads the league with 252 receiving yards through two weeks -- nobody else has more than 200 -- and he will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game at Minnesota.

Has 252 yards through two games
Collins caught eight of 10 targets for 135 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Collins once again easily led the team in receiving yards, finishing with 98 more yards than second-place Stefon Diggs after topping second-place Tank Dell by 77 receiving yards in Week 1. Collins' hefty yardage total included a 28-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. After racking up 1,297 receiving yards in a breakout 2023 regular season, Collins has been the favorite target for quarterback C.J. Stroud early in 2024, with 252 receiving yards heading into Week 3 against the Vikings.

Cleared for Sunday's game
Collins (illness) practiced fully Friday and does not carry a Week 2 injury designation.
Analysis: An illness limited Collins on Thursday, but the wideout's full participation a day later sets the stage for him to be available Sunday night against the Bears. In the Texans' 29-27 win over the Colts in Week 1, Collins caught six of his eight targets for 117 yards while recording an 80 percent snap share alongside fellow WRs Stefon Diggs (77 percent) and Tank Dell (63 percent).

Tops 100 yards in opener
Collins caught six of eight targets for 117 yards in Sunday's 29-27 win over the Colts.
Analysis: The fourth-year wideout immediately re-established his chemistry with C.J. Stroud, topping 100 yards to open 2024 after doing so five times last season en route to a 1,297-yard breakout. While Collins led the Texans in receiving yards and targets, newcomer Stefon Diggs caught two red-zone TDs from Stroud and tied Collins for the team lead with six catches, giving secondaries another serious threat to worry about. Collins will look to keep rolling in a Week 2 matchup against the Bears.

Not expected to suit up Saturday
Collins is among a number of Texans wideouts not dressed for Saturday's preseason contest versus the Rams, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Also expected to be held out of the contest are Stefon Diggs, Tank Dell and Robert Woods. Those four are at the head of the wide receiver depth chart for the Texans, so the team appears to be have made the decision to keep its top players out of the exhibition finale. John Metchie III, Ben Skowronek, Xavier Hutchinson and Steven Sims, among others, will get a chance to shine as Houston's pass catchers Saturday.

One long gain Saturday
Collins caught one of two targets for 24 yards in Saturday's 28-10 preseason win over the Giants.
Analysis: The first-team offense was only on the field for two possessions and came away with zero points, but Collins and C.J. Stroud still got a chance to show off their chemistry, as the wideout's big gain on the first drive put the Texans in the red zone. Collins is coming off a breakout 2023 campaign, and even with Stefon Diggs now in the mix for targets along with holdovers Tank Dell, Dalton Schultz and others, the 25-year-old could still be Stroud's top downfield option.

Plays two drives Friday
Collins wasn't targeted in Friday's 20-12 preseason win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Collins played the first two drives along with the rest of Houston's starters, but neither he nor new teammate Stefon Diggs saw a target while Tank Dell scored a 34-yard touchdown. Even with numerous mouths to feed in the passing game, Collins figures to play a prominent role in 2024 after breaking out with 1,297 receiving yards during the 2023 regular season. Collins and the Texans will host the Giants a week from Saturday in the third of Houston's four preseason games.

Inks three-year extension
Collins agreed to terms Tuesday on a three-year, $72.75 million contract extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Collins is coming off a breakout 2023 season in which he piled up a 80-1,297-8 receiving line on 109 targets (15 games), and even with Stefon Diggs in town on a one-year deal, Collins represents the future for Houston's wide receiver corps, as does second-year pro Tank Dell. While the addition of Diggs crowds the Texans' target distribution, as does the presence of capable pass-catching options like Joe Mixon in the backfield and tight end Dalton Schultz, this significant monetary commitment to…read more

Joined by Diggs in Houston
Collins and Tank Dell will face increased target competition in 2024 after the Texans acquired Stefon Diggs from the Bills on Wednesday, ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: C.J. Stroud had one of the best rookie seasons ever by an NFL quarterback and now has arguably the best group of pass catchers in the league. Diggs is coming off six consecutive seasons with at least six touchdowns and more than 1,000 yards, and he's now joining an offense in which Collins put up 80-1,297-8 receiving line on 109 targets (15 games) and Dell produced a 47-709-7 line on 75 targets (11 games).

Picks up 68 yards
Collins recorded five receptions on 10 targets for 68 yards in Saturday's 34-10 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Collins was a significant part of the Texans' passing attack as expected, but the team had a tough time moving the ball consistently. That limited Collins' output, though he still managed a 29-yard catch that was the highlight of his day and helped set up a field-goal attempt just before halftime. Though it wasn't the way he would have wanted to end his season, Collins turned in an impressive breakout campaign in which he set career highs in receptions (80), yards (1,297) and touchdowns (eight)…read more

Plays well in postseason debut
Collins recorded six catches on seven targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 45-14 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Collins was the clear leader of the Texans' receiving corps as Noah Brown (shoulder) was forced out of the game early and did not return. Collins continued to show impressive rapport with C.J. Stroud, as the duo connected on long gains of 38 and 21 yards in addition to a 15-yard touchdown. He narrowly missed out on a bigger day, as Stroud overthrew him when he broke behind the Cleveland defense midway through the second quarter for what would have been a 59-yard touchdown.

Torches Colts' secondary
Collins recorded nine catches on nine targets for 195 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 23-19 win over the Colts.
Analysis: With both Noah Brown (back) and Robert Woods (hip) inactive, Collins was left as the Texans' clear top pass catcher. He certainly took advantage, recording three catches of more than 20 yards -- the longest of which was a 75-yard touchdown on Houstons' first play from scrimmage. The performance marked Collins' third game with over 160 receiving yards in what has been a breakout campaign, and he'll conclude the regular season with 1,297 yards despite missing two contests.

Makes seven catches
Collins recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 80 yards in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Titans. He added one rush for seven yards.
Analysis: Collins was one of the few Texans' pass catchers to remain healthy throughout the game, as the team lost both Robert Woods (hip) and Noah Brown (hip) during Sunday's win. As a result, Collins saw plenty of work, though game script ultimately limited him to only two targets across the final two quarters of the contest. Houston will be in for a key matchup against the Jaguars in Week 18, and Collins could be relied upon very heavily depending on the health of Brown and Woods.

Ready to face Titans
Collins (calf) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans after practicing fully Thursday and Friday.
Analysis: Collins was listed as limited Wednesday, but back-to-back full sessions have paved the way for the wideout to suit up Sunday and maintain a key role in Houston's passing attack Week 17. Now further removed from the calf issue that sidelined him Week 15, Collins' fantasy prospects this weekend are further boosted by the return of top QB C.J.

Hauls in garbage-time TD
Collins caught four of six targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Browns. He also caught a two-point conversion.
Analysis: Making his return from a one-game absence due to a calf injury, Collins showed little chemistry with Case Keenum early but did connect with Davis Mills on a five-yard TD in the fourth quarter as the Texans made a futile attempt to come back from a 36-7 deficit. Collins seemed to come out of the game healthy though, and the wideout figures to have a much higher fantasy ceiling in Week 17 against the Titans if C.J. Stroud (concussion) is able to return to the lineup.

Remains sidelined Friday
Collins (calf) wasn't present for Friday's practice, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Given that Collins didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, the wideout doesn't seem likely to suit up Sunday against the Titans. If Collins is out this weekend, Noah Brown (knee) and Robert Woods would be in line to lead the Texans' Week 15 WR corps, with Xavier Hutchinson and John Metchie also likely to see added opportunities this weekend.

Missing another practice
Collins (calf) remained sidelined at Thursday's practice, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Collins didn't practice Wednesday, either, making Friday's practice a pivotal one when it comes to determining his status for Sunday's game against the Titans. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, Collins is making progress in his recovery from the calf strain he suffered in this past Sunday's loss to the Jets, but his injury is considered similar to the one that he sustained Week 9 at Tampa Bay. Collins ended up missing the Texans' Week 10 win over the Bengals and could be in line for another…read more

Hoping to play this week
Collins (calf) didn't practice Wednesday, but he was present and moving around on the sideline and hopes to play in Sunday's game against Tennessee, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Collins missed Week 10 with a calf strain but was no worse for the wear after his return, catching 23 passes for 360 yards and two touchdowns Weeks 11 through 13. He then left Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets in the first quarter with a new calf concern and was unable to return, putting his status in question for Week 15. Quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) and tight end Dalton Schultz (hamstring) also are in danger of missing the game at Tennessee, though Schultz returned to practice Wednesday.

Won't return Sunday
Collins (calf) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: With the Texans placing Tank Dell (fibula) on injured reserve earlier this week with a season-ending injury, the loss of Collins now leaves the team without its top two receivers for the second half of Sunday's contest. Collins hauled in his lone target for a 13-yard gain before departing the game in the first quarter. Houston will be left with Noah Brown, Robert Woods, John Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson as its available wideouts for the rest of the day.

Solid in return to action
Collins brought in seven of 11 targets for 65 yards in the Texans' 21-16 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
Analysis: Collins put together a productive effort in his return from a one-game absence due to a calf injury, finishing second in receptions and receiving yards to Tank Dell while setting the pace in targets. The third-year wideout benefitted to an extent from the absence of Noah Brown (knee), but he should retain a significant role irrespective of whether his teammate is available for a Week 12 divisional home matchup against the Jaguars.

Clear for Week 11
Collins (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Collins, who the Texans ruled out for their Week 10 matchup with the Bengals, opened this week with back-to-back capped sessions, but he progressed to all activity Friday, paving the way for his return to action Sunday. Collins thus is clear to take on an Arizona defense that has yielded the third-most yards per target (9.4) and 12th-most touchdowns (nine) to opposing wide receivers in 10 contests this season.

Touchdown grab in Week 9 win
Collins brought in three of five targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 39-37 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: It's difficult to believe Collins accrued only 54 yards and five targets on an afternoon during which C.J. Stroud threw for a rookie-record 470 yards on 42 attempts, but the third-year pro played second fiddle to a number of his pass-catching teammates.

Four grabs against Carolina
Collins caught four of six targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 15-13 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud had his worst performance in the NFL, and as a result Collins posted poor numbers despite leading the Texans in catches and targets. The third-year wideout hasn't seen more than six targets in three straight games as the Houston passing attack cools down, but Collins could be more productive in Week 9 against a Buccaneers secondary that came into Sunday having given up the third-most receiving yards in the league to WRs.

The third-year pro's reception and yardage totals were both his second-lowest figures of the season, and the underwhelming performance came on the heels of his season-best 168-yard, two-touchdown tally in Week 4 against the Steelers.

Huge day in Week 4 win
Collins caught seven of nine targets for 168 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: The third-year wideout was on the other end of both of C.J. Stroud's TD passes on the afternoon while also accounting for 54.9 percent of the rookie QB's passing yards. No other Texan caught more than three passes in the game, but Stroud had little reason to look anyone else's way with Collins torching the Pittsburgh secondary. Collins already has two games with over 140 receiving yards heading into a Week 5 matchup against the Falcons.

Despite Sunday's downturn, the chemistry Collins has already demonstrated with rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud is sure to serve the duo well more often than not, and the big-bodied wideout will look to bounce back at the expense of the Steelers in a Week 4 home matchup.

Puts end to two-game absence
Collins (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Collins is making his return from a two-game absence and isn't expected to face any major restrictions with his playing time after managing three limited practices this week. Though the second-year wideout has yet to find the end zone in 2022, he's played no fewer than two-thirds of the snaps in the five games he's been able to finish this season and has averaged three receptions for 54.4 yards on 5.4 targets in those contests.

Likely to play Sunday
Collins (groin), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, is expected to play, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Collins sat out the Texans' past two games due to the groin issue, but Wilson notes that the receiver had a good week of practice after participating on a limited basis Wednesday through Friday. His availability for Sunday's contest should be confirmed with the release of the Texans' inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. In six appearances on the season, Collins has recorded 18 receptions for 305 yards and no touchdowns on 30 targets.

Taking questionable tag into Sunday
Collins (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Following a two-game absence, Collins looks to have a decent shot at returning to action this weekend in New York after he was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday. Additionally, the Texans could get Brandin Cooks (wrist, questionable) back from a one-game absence, which would result in Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore moving back into lesser roles within Houston's receiving corps. Collins has yet to record a touchdown in his six appearances on the season, but he's shown…read more

Maintains limited practice activity
Collins (groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Collins has sat out the Texans' last two games, but his consecutive limited practices to kick off Week 10 prep seemingly have him trending in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Giants approaches. In order to avoid carrying a designation into that contest, however, Collins will likely need to graduate to full participation in Friday's practice.

Returns to practice
Collins (groin) returned to practice Wednesday as a limited participant.

May return to practice this week
Coach Lovie Smith said Monday that he's hopeful Collins (groin) is able to practice ahead of Week 10, Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site reports.
Analysis: Collins has missed back-to-back games due to a groin injury, but he appears to be progressing well and could mix into drills this week. The rookie wideout likely will have to log at least one full practice to be cleared for game action, but his potential return still is an encouraging sign, even if it's in a limited fashion.

Ruled out for Thursday
Collins (groin) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Meanwhile, Brandin Cooks (wrist/not injury-related) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate and is listed as questionable for the contest. If Cooks joins Collins on the inactive list Thursday, Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore would be in line to lead the Texans' wideout corps versus Philadelphia. Collins will aim for a potential return to action Week 10 against the Giants.

Likely to miss Week 9
Collins (groin) didn't practice Tuesday and appears unlikely to play in Thursday's game against the Eagles, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Collins has yet to resume any practice activity since injuring his groin in the Texans' Week 7 loss to the Raiders and will face an uphill battle to make it back on the field for Houston's Week 9 contest. If Collins is in fact sidelined again Thursday, Phillip Dorsett, Chris Moore and Tyron Johnson would likely take on more reps alongside No. 1 target Brandin Cooks (personal), who sat out Tuesday's practice but remains with the Texans after not being dealt at the trade deadline.

DNP on practice estimate
Collins (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate.
Analysis: Collins was inactive Sunday against the Titans, with Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle relaying via coach Lovie Smith that "it's going to be hard" for the wideout to be ready for Thursday night's game against the Eagles. If Collins remains out, Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore once again would see added WR snaps Week 9 alongside Brandin Cooks.

Out for divisional battle
Collins (groin) was downgraded Saturday and will not play Sunday against the Titans.
Analysis: Collins didn't practice all week due to a groin injury, but there still was some hope the second-year starter would be able to suit up Sunday. With Collins sidelined, Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore could see an increased role, and that's without the possible absence of Brandin Cooks, who is also questionable for Sunday's contest due to a wrist injury (and a flurry of trade rumors to boot).

Questionable after three DNPs
Collins (groin) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: Collins was unable to practice at all throughout the week, so he'll likely need to progress substantially to play come Sunday. Given that context, it's no surprise that the Texans don't expect Collins to play, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. If Collins is out or limited, Phillip Dorsett will likely take on a larger role against the pedestrian Titans secondary. Dorsett got into the end zone after Collins got hurt in the Week 7 loss to the Raiders.

Collins (groin) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Though Texans head coach Lovie Smith has already noted that the groin injury Collins suffered in the team's Week 7 loss to the Raiders isn't a season-ending concern, the wideout seems likely to miss at least one game, and a stint on injured reserve could still be in play. Collins has now missed two straight practices to begin Week 8 prep, and though he hasn't been ruled out from playing in Sunday's game against the Titans, he'll face an uphill battle to gain clearance for that contest.

Injury not long term
Houston head coach Lovie Smith said Wednesday that Collins' groin injury is not season ending and hopes to have wide receiver back "sooner than later," Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Collins missed the Texans' first Week 8 practice Wednesday in preparation for Sunday's tilt with the Titans. While Collins may miss some time with his groin injury, the Texans aren't yet ruling him out for Week 8. If Collins can't go this weekend, Phillip Dorsett will likely step in as Houston's No. 2 wideout.

Sitting out first Week 8 practice
Collins (groin) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: According to Wilson, the Texans are viewing Collins as day-to-day ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans after he exited the team's Week 7 loss to the Raiders with the groin injury. If Collins is unable to overcome the groin issue in time for Sunday, Phillip Dorsett would likely pick up more reps alongside Brandin Cooks and Chris Moore in three-receiver sets.

Full practice Thursday
Collins (Achilles/wrist) practiced fully Thursday, ProFootballNetwork.com's Aaron Wilson reports.
Analysis: A full practice for Collins all but settles that he's in line to start and be ready for his usual workload against the Raiders on Sunday. Hopefully the Texans' Week 6 bye allowed Collins to reach 100 percent health, because he quietly produced at an encouraging level before then (13 catches for 246 yards on 24 targets in he prior four games), though Collins will still be looking for his first touchdown of the season as the Texans head to Las Vegas.

Pops up with minor injuries
Collins was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to Achilles and wrist injuries, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Collins is making his first appearance on the injury report of the season, following a Week 5 outing where he turned in a 4-65-0 receiving line on six targets in a 13-6 win over Jacksonville before Houston went on bye Week 6. Assuming neither the Achilles nor wrist injury is a major hinderance coming out of the bye week, Collins will handle his usual role as Houston's No. 2 receiver this Sunday against the Raiders.

Leads team with 65 yards
Collins had four receptions (six targets) for 65 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Collins led the Texans in receiving for the second week in a row, seeing his role increase at the expense of veteran co-starter Brandin Cooks (four receptions for 20 yards). The 2021 third-round pick has flashed some big-play ability to go along with his 6-foot-4 frame. That said, Collins is entering a bye week and will still have a struggling Davis Mills under center when the Texans take on the Raiders in Week 7.

Collins caught three of five targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Collins led the Texans in receiving yards, with a long gain of 58 fueling his performance and helping him post his highest yardage of the campaign.

Outperforms Cooks again
Collins caught two of four targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Chicago in Week 3.
Analysis: The second-year wideout was the second-leading receiver in terms of yards behind Chris Moore (63), and for the second straight week he produced more yardage than No. 1 WR Brandin Cooks (22). Collins had one of the four plays in the passing game that gained more than 20 yards, and he has eight catches on 16 targets for 125 yards (15.6 YPC) through three games.

Team-leading yardage total in loss
Collins brought in four of nine targets for 58 yards in the Texans' 16-9 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Analysis: Collins paced the Texans in receiving yardage while sharing the team lead in receptions with Brandin Cooks. The numbers, including the target share, was a notable improvement from Week 1 for Collins, who posted a 2-26-0 line on just three targets in the tie with the Colts. Collins certainly has the talent and opportunity to grow along with Mills in the Texans offense, and he'll look to carry over his Week 2 momentum into a Week 3 road battle versus the Bears next Sunday.

Two catches in Week 1
Collins brought in two of three targets for 26 yards in the Texans' 20-20 overtime tie with the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Collins drew the start alongside Brandin Cooks, but he was able to deliver only modest numbers overall. The second-year wideout has the talent to make an impact in the offense over the course of the season while developing alongside fellow sophomore Davis Mills, but a Week 2 surge may be an uphill battle with a road matchup against the Broncos on tap next Sunday.

The second-year wide receiver was thrown to once more on Houston's second drive but had a quiet night in a dress rehearsal game that saw starting quarterback Davis Mills play into the second half.

Paces pass catchers in win
Collins brought in four of six targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 24-20 preseason win over the Rams on Friday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Houston.
Analysis: The second-year wideout hauled in an 18-yard scoring grab from the arm of Davis Mills with one second remaining in the first half to give Houston its only points over the first two quarters. Collins is projected to fill the No. 2 receiver role alongside top target Brandin Cooks, and Friday's showing was a particularly welcome sight after he hadn't logged so much as a single target in the exhibition opener versus the Saints.

Not targeted Saturday
Collins was not targeted in Saturday's 17-13 preseason win over the Saints.
Analysis: Collins had a chance to serve as the No. 1 wide receiver with the Texans' first-team offense, as veteran Brandin Cooks didn't suit up for the preseason opener, but the former ultimately played sparingly as Houston opened the contest with back-to-back three and outs. Collins figures to see additional run with the starters when the Texans travel to Los Angeles for another preseason tilt against the Rams on Friday.

Works on route running
Collins is working on route running to make sure his body mechanics look the same regardless of the route he's running, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The Texans hope Collins can take a big leap during his second season after finishing a distant second to Brandin Cooks in his rookie 2021 season. In addition to disguising his routes better, Collins worked extensively during the offseason with quarterback Davis Mills in an effort to develop chemistry. The duo hooked up on a couple of throws during the second practice of camp Saturday, indicating the time put in during the offseason is working. The 6-foot-4 wide receiver could become a…read more

Works as deep threat
Collins recorded three receptions on eight targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Collins stepped into an expanded role due to the absence of Chris Conley (knee) and an early departure for Brandin Cooks (knee). He wasn't particularly efficient in terms of his catch rate, though he still managed 8.4 yards per target.

Gains 35 yards in loss
Collins had two receptions (five targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 23-7 loss to San Francisco.
Analysis: Brandin Cooks drew the majority of Davis Mills' attention, leaving scraps for Collins and the rest of the Texans' thin receiving corps. The 2021 third-round pick remained second in the wide receiver pecking order, finishing third in targets behind Cooks (11) and Rex Burkhead (six). Collins doesn't receive enough volume in this offense to warrant attention from fantasy managers heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Titans.

Reaches end zone
Collins recorded three receptions on four targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-29 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Collins saw an increased role in the absence of Brandin Cooks (illness), though Davis Mills spread targets evenly around to all of his receiving options. Collins did take advantage of the looks he received, highlighted by a 13-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter that put Houston up by two scores. It was the first trip to the end zone of his career, though he figures to revert back to a supplemental role assuming Cooks is back for a Week 17 matchup against San Francisco.

Heightened role likely in Week 16
Texans offensive coordinator Tim Kelly said Thursday that Collins will likely assume a more prominent role in the Houston passing attack Sunday against the Chargers while Brandin Cooks (illness) is on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Deepi Sidhu of the Texans' official site reports.
Analysis: Cooks wasn't able to clear the NFL's COVID-19 return-to-play protocols in advance of the Week 16 contest, while Danny Amendola (knee) was activated from injured reserve but will be inactive Sunday. That leaves Houston with few established options at receiver heading into the game, with Collins presumably the top candidate to serve as the Texans' de facto No. 1 receiver.

Downturn in involvement
Collins secured two of four targets for 14 yards in the Texans' 30-16 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: Just a week after logging a career-high 10 targets against the Seahawks, Collins saw a significant downturn in involvement Sunday. The rookie's yardage tally was his third lowest of the season as far as games in which he'd recorded at least one catch. Despite the disappointing performance, Collins' talent and speed could well allow him to quickly recapture his rhythm with fellow first-year battery mate Davis Mills during a Week 16 home matchup against the Chargers.

Collins caught five of 10 targets for 69 yards in Sunday's 33-13 loss to Seattle.
Analysis: Collins enjoyed season highs in catches, targets and yards in the Week 14 loss.

Houston is in full-on evaluation mode, which includes establishing a potential 2022 collaboration of Mills and Collins -- the duo combined for the team's longest play, a 30-yard deep ball that set up a touchdown on the Texans' first drive of the game.

The rookie had averaged a little more than four targets per game over the previous six contests. He'll remain as the second wideout over the final weeks of the season, as the franchise looks to set him up for 2022. In the present, however, Collins doesn't bring much value.

Collins is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets after logging a limited practice Friday due to a hip issue.
Analysis: Given that Collins caught just one of two targets for nine yards in last week's win over Tennessee, he profiles as a speculative Week 12 fantasy lineup option, more so now that he was added to the Texans' injury report Friday.

Analysis: Collins had experienced an uptick in targets since returning from a foot injury Week 6, but Sunday's sloppy conditions and Houston's dedication to running the ball (although ineffectively) conspired to limit him. He remains the second wideout on the depth chart behind Brandin Cooks, and the rookie should continue to get ample playing time the rest of the season.

Collins secured all three targets for 25 yards in the Texans' 17-9 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: The rookie turned in an underwhelming performance following a career-best four-catch, 55-yard effort in Week 8 against the Rams. Collins does have multiple grabs in four straight contests, and perhaps the talented rookie will be able to progressively build up his production the longer he gets a chance to work with a capable veteran in Tyrod Taylor.

Analysis: Collins was very efficient with his four targets and his 55 yards were the second highest on the team behind WR1 Brandin Cooks (six receptions for 83 yards and one touchdown on six targets), but it would have been nice to see him get more opportunity when Davis Mills put up 39 pass attempts.

Analysis: Collins, who was a limited practice participant both Thursday and Friday, will give it a go Sunday and look to build off the four catches (on six targets) and 44 yards he logged in a Week 6 loss to the Colts. Also in the Texans' WR mix Sunday will be top option Brandin Cooks, slot man Danny Amendola, Chris Conley and Chris Moore.

Analysis: Collins was a limited participant both Thursday and Friday as a result of the foot injury. With the Texans being heavy underdogs against the undefeated Cardinals, the rookie third-round pick could be in line for ample target volume if he suits up.

Analysis: The rookie third-round pick out of Michigan was active in his return from a three-week stay on injured reserve due to a shoulder injury. While the Texans suffered another bad defeat, Collins at least provided a spark. He played 43 snaps for a season-high 57-percent share and showed some chemistry with rookie quarterback Davis Mills.

Set to make return
Collins (shoulder) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Analysis: It's a bit surprising to see Collins activated so soon given he was just designated to practice earlier this week. As a result, Saturday's roster move has to be a positive sign regarding his health moving forward. The 2021 third-round pick was a popular sleeper entering the year given the lack of notable starting receivers opposite Brandin Cooks. That hasn't changed in Collins' absence, though the switch to Davis Mills might complicate things somewhat given the two theoretically haven't had…read more

Officially designated for return
The Texans designated Collins (shoulder) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: The transaction opens a 21-day window for Collins to resume participating in practice, with the wideout eligible to rejoin the 53-man roster at any point during that time. The shoulder injury kept the rookie third-round pick sidelined for the past three games, but once active, he should push Chris Conley for work at the perimeter receiver spot opposite No. 1 wideout Brandin Cooks.

On track to practice
Collins (shoulder) is expected to return to practice this week, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Per Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site, Collins, who remains on injured reserve is on track to practice in a limited fashion this week. Before he's able to rejoin the Texans for practice in any capacity, the team will have to designate him to return from IR. Unless the wideout upgrades to full activity by the end of the week, he's unlikely to be formally added to the 53-man roster in advance of Sunday's game against the Colts.

Not returning Week 6
Houston head coach David Culley said Wednesday that Collins (shoulder) is not expected to return from injured reserve when first eligible Week 6, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Culley was unable to offer a timetable for Collins' return, but it's a safe bet the rookie wideout will have a sizable role when he's available again. Collins played 55.1 percent of the offensive snaps in Week 1, then recorded a 32-yard catch-and-run on the first drive of Week 2 before sustaining the shoulder injury.

Heads to IR
Collins (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Analysis: The roster move ensures that Collins won't be available to play for the Texans until at least their Week 6 matchup with the Colts on Oct. 17. Though the details regarding Collins' shoulder injury remain vague, prior reports suggested that he faced a 3-4 week recovery timeline. Houston added tight end Antony Auclair from the practice squad to take Collins' spot on the 53-man roster.

Ruled out for Week 3
Texans head coach David Culley confirmed Tuesday that Collins (shoulder) won't play Thursday against the Panthers, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Houston hasn't offered up many details on the shoulder injury Collins suffered in a Week 2 loss to the Browns, but Culley said Monday that the rookie's medical concern is "pretty significant," per Kubena. Meanwhile, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that Collins is likely facing a 3-4 week recovery timeline from the injury, making the 22-year-old a candidate for injured reserve. Culley indicated that Jordan Veasy and/or Chris Moore could be elevated from the practice squad ahead of Thursday's game…read more

Will miss 3-to-4 weeks
Collins (shoulder) is expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks due to the injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Collins has compiled two catches through two games, so the rookie third-round pick's absence is unlikely to have much of an effect on Houston's offense. Anthony Miller should see an uptick in playing time while Collins recovers, though Brandin Cooks remains the only member of the Texans' receiving corps that's expected to make a significant impact on a weekly basis.

Injury considered significant
Coach David Culley said Monday that Collins (shoulder) is dealing with a "pretty significant" injury, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Culley didn't rule the receiver out for Thursday night's matchup against the Panthers, however. The 22-year-old has totaled two receptions for 39 yards across the first two weeks of the season, but Andre Roberts could see increased work in Week 3 if Collins is unavailable.

Injures shoulder
Collins left Sunday's game against the Browns with a shoulder injury, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Prior to his exit from the contest, Collins caught his only target for 32 yards. In his absence, Brandin Cooks, Chris Conley and Danny Amendola are in line to head the Texans' Week 2 WR corps.

Plays second-most snaps at WR
Collins caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 37-21 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Collins, a 2021 third-round draft pick, was second among wide receivers with 43 snaps (55 percent), trailing only No. 1 wideout Brandin Cooks. When Houston made Anthony Miller (coach's decision) inactive, it was unclear how the playing time would be distributed, but Collins and Chris Conley (40 snaps) were given the most run after Cooks. Danny Amendola, recently added to the roster, was fourth among the wideouts at 17 snaps but equaled the targets of the Cooks/Conley duo.

Finds end zone despite inefficiency
Collins recorded two receptions on six targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason game against Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Collins entered the game with the first-team offense, but he played into the third quarter and was targeted by both Tyrod Taylor and Davis Mills. He wasn't particularly efficient with either signal caller, though he did manage an 11-yard touchdown connection with Mills midway through the third quarter. Collins isn't likely to play a huge role in Week 1 against Jacksonville, though he could overtake players such as Chris Conley or Keke Coutee for a role as the season wears on.

Returns to practice Monday
Collins (undisclosed) returned for Monday's brief walkthrough practice, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
Analysis: The Texans held Collins out of this past Saturday's preseason game at Dallas as a precautionary measure as he tended to a "muscle pull," per Drew Dougherty of the team's official site. Coach David Culley said during postgame media availability that Collins could have played, and the fact the rookie third-round pick was back on the field Monday indicates the lack of severity of the injury. Collins will look to make his presence felt again in Saturday's exhibition finale against the Buccaneers.

Dealing with pulled muscle
Collins did not play in Saturday's preseason contest against Dallas due to a pulled muscle, Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site reports.
Analysis: Coach David Culley didn't offer much detail regarding the injury and didn't specify which muscle Collins was having an issue with. It was noted that Collins could have played Saturday, but the team took a cautious approach. That said, the injury doesn't appear to have the potential to impact his availability for the start of the regular season.

Sitting out Saturday
Collins will not play in Saturday's preseason game against Dallas, the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: It's not clear whether the rookie third-round pick is dealing with an injury, but nothing reported to this point gives reason to suspect it. With Brandin Cooks locked in as the WR1, Collins is competing with Chris Conley for the second outside wide receiver role while Keke Coutee and Anthony Miller likely fight for the slot receiver tasks in three-wide formations.

One big grab Saturday
Collins caught his only target for 24 yards in Saturday's preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: The rookie has made a good impression in training camp, but Collins still was treated like a depth option in the preseason opener, making his only grab of the night in the second quarter after the Texans' starters were already long gone. Anthony Miller dislocated his elbow in the game however, sidelining one of his competitors for snaps, and if Collins keeps stacking up good days in practice, the 2021 third-round pick's climb up the depth chart should continue.

At end of depth chart
Collins is listed as the sixth wideout on the Texans' unofficial depth chart, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Perhaps Collins, the Texans' third-round draft pick in 2021, is getting the rookie treatment heading into the first preseason game. He's popped early in camp and seemingly was in the mix to start opposite Brandin Cooks, but that privilege goes to veteran Chris Conley. It's early and changes will occur between now and the regular season, so interested observers should not read too much into Collins' placement on the depth chart.

Shining through first week of camp
Collins has been the best rookie at Texans training camp, according to Aaron Reiss of The Athletic.
Analysis: Reiss adds that the rookie third-round pick has a shot to finish top three on the Texans in targets this season. It's a realistic assessment, given the lack of veteran receiving talent in Houston behind top option Brandin Cooks. With Will Fuller, Kenny Stills and now Randall Cobb all leaving, the Texans have Collins, Chris Conley, Keke Coutee and Anthony Miller battling for top-three roles at wide receiver. The rookie is far from a lock to win one of those jobs, but he's at least right in the…read more
