  • Texans' Nico Collins: Poised to play in Week 11

    Collins (hamstring) will practice this week, and the expectation is that the receiver will play in Monday's game against the Cowboys, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

    Last Friday, Collins was cleared for his first practice since Week 5, then was listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game versus the Lions. Though he was activated from injured reserve Saturday, he was still considered a game-time decision, with the Texans ultimately making him inactive ahead of a 26-23 loss. According to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle, coach DeMeco Ryans said that Collins didn't suffer a setback with his right hamstring injury in practice Friday. Instead, the Texans wanted him to get in some more reps before clearing him for a return to game action. Assuming Collins practices this week without issue, he shouldn't face any limitations against Dallas as Houston's No. 1 wideout. Collins led the NFL with 567 receiving yards through the first five weeks of the season before missing the last five games.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Inactive Sunday night

    Collins (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Collins, who landed on injured reserve Oct. 9 due to a hamstring injury, was designated to return from IR on Friday and practiced in a limited fashion that day before being listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's contest. Though the wideout was activated from IR on Saturday and has recovered well from his hamstring issue, his return to action is on hold until at least Nov. 18, when Houston faces Dallas on the road. In his continued absence, Tank Dell, Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods and John Metchie are slated to headline Texans' wideout corps.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Viewed as game-time call

    Collins (hamstring) remains listed as questionable and is viewed as a game-time decision for Sunday's contest against the Lions, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Shortly after Houston reinstated Collins from injured reserve Saturday, Rapoport reported that the receiver was on track to return to action Sunday following a four-game absence, but his status appears to be more uncertain leading up to the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Though the Texans added Collins back to the 53-man roster after he spent the minimum amount of time on IR, he didn't resume practicing until Friday, when he was a limited participant in the team's final session of the week. Official word on the availability (or lack thereof) of both Collins and fellow starting receiver Tank Dell (back) -- who is listed as questionable but expected to play -- won't be provided until Houston releases its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff, so fantasy managers planning on using Collins this week may not have many appealing alternatives available if he ends up sitting out Sunday. If Collins end up playing against Detroit, he could still face some restrictions with his snap count, given his limited practice time leading up to the contest.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Activated, remains questionable

    Collins (hamstring) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Collins is expected to play Sunday after missing the previous four games with a hamstring injury, but official word on his status won't arrive until the Texans release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Collins didn't resume practicing until Friday and was listed as a limited participant for that session, so even if he plays Sunday, he could have his reps managed to some degree. Fellow starting wideout Tank Dell (back) is also listed as questionable for Sunday's contest.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Designated to return

    Collins (hamstring) has been designated to return from injured reserve by the Texans.

    Collins, who was placed on IR on Oct. 9, thus is available to resume practicing Friday, but it remains to be seen if he'll be able to suit up for Sunday night's game against the Lions. The Texans' upcoming injury report will provide added context by revealing both Collins' level of participation in Friday's practice and his Week 10 game status.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Has chance to return Sunday

    Collins (hamstring) was limited at Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Lions.

    The Texans designated Collins for return from injured reserve Friday, opening a 21-day window in which to evaluate him for a potential return to action. With a questionable designation in tow, he may be back for the first time since injuring his right hamstring Week 5 against the Bills. The Texans will need to activate Collins by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday for the wide receiver to have a chance to suit up this weekend, and if that transaction happens, his status won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Considering it'll be the second-to-last game of the Week 10 slate, there won't be many options to pivot to if Houston activates him, and fellow WR Tank Dell (back) showed up as limited and listed as questionable on Friday's practice report, so Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods, John Metchie and Steven Sims are the healthy wide receivers on the team's active roster at the moment.

  • Texans' Nico Collins: Still not practicing

    Collins (hamstring) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN.com reports.

    With Collins not yet designated to return from IR as of Thursday, the chances of him being available Sunday night against the Lions don't seem strong. If Collins remains sidelined Week 10, Tank Dell will continue to lead a Houston WR corps that also includes Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods and John Metchie.
