Nico Collins Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Texans QB C.J. Stroud managed only 131 yards in Sunday's win over Miami. He hit two TDs for only the fifth time this season.

Texans WR Nico Collins played his first game in over six weeks, catching four passes 54 yards on seven targets. He did have a TD called back due to a penalty. Collins has retained his athleticism, but struggled for most of the night against Trevon Diggs.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 11 injury report. He practiced all week, including full workouts on Friday and Saturday, and will play against the Cowboys on Monday night. The Texans were cautious bringing Collins back from this Week 5 hamstring injury, so we're expecting him to be ready for a full slate of snaps in this one. That lands Collins inside the top five of our Week 11 WR Rankings.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) was limited in Thursday's practice. HC Demeco Ryans was talking earlier this week like Collins would be back for Monday night's game vs. the Cowboys. That's what we're projecting, but we'll keep you updated on Collins' status over the next few days.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is expected to practice all week and play against the Cowboys on Monday night, according to insider Aaron Wilson. "He's 100 percent ready to go," a source told Wilson. Collins was seemingly close to playing against the Lions this past week, but the Texans played it safe with his return. We'll look for further updates on his status, but we're tentatively expecting Collins to play something close to his usual role against the Cowboys. He sits high in the Week 11 WR Rankings.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Lions. It was a strange week for Collins, who didn’t practice until Friday before being moved onto the active roster on Saturday but still ending up inactive. We’d expect him back for Week 11 but will track his status this coming week. Collins’ absence is bad news for QB C.J. Stroud, who’s averaged just 6.3 yards per pass attempt without Collins over the last four games.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is a game-time decision for tonight's meeting with the Lions, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Collins was moved onto the active roster on Saturday but is still listed as questionable. He's been out since Week 5 and only got in a limited practice on Friday this week. We'll look for further updates on Collins, but we might not find out whether he's playing until a little before 7 pm ET. Fantasy owners hoping to start Collins should have a replacement option rostered from the Texans, Lions, Rams, or Dolphins.

The Texans have activated WR Nico Collins (hamstring) from IR. He’s on track to play tomorrow night vs. Detroit. Out since Week 5, the fourth-year pro can be plugged back into fantasy lineups as a WR1.

Texans WR Tank Dell (back) is expected to play vs. the Lions on Sunday night, according to insider Aaron Wilson. Dell was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Friday. He's officially listed as questionable. But, barring a different report on his status, Dell can stay in Week 10 fantasy lineups. We still don't have word on WR Nico Collins' status for Sunday night, but Wilson writes that the Texans "have prepared all week to go without him."

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game vs. the Lions. He was just designated to return on Friday, putting in his first official practice since going down in Week 5. It remains uncertain if he'll play against Detroit. We should get more updates on Collins between now and Sunday morning, but the late kickoff could put Collins owners in a tough spot. He'd be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups if he ends up playing.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) has been designated to return from IR. That puts him in line to practice on Friday. It remains unclear if the Texans will play Collins against the Lions on Sunday night off a four-game layoff with just one practice under his belt. We'll keep you updated on the situation.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice, according to insider Aaron Wilson. Although all reports on Collins' rehab from his Week 5 hamstring injury have been positive, it doesn't look like Houston plans to activate him for Sunday night's game vs. the Lions. That's bad news for QB C.J. Stroud, who's averaged 7.8 yards per pass attempt in five games with Collins this season but just 6.3 yards per attempt in four games without Collins.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) was not designated to return and will not practice on Wednesday, according to insider Aaron Wilson. "Collins has passed all tests for hamstring, no setbacks, per league sources, regained speed, mobility, ready to go," Wilson tweets. But the Texans are still deciding whether to activate Collins for Sunday night's game vs. the Lions. We'll see if Collins gets back on the practice field tomorrow.

Texans WR Stefon Diggs will miss the remainder of the season with a torn right ACL. His season ends with 47 catches, 496 yards, and 3 TDs in less than 8 full games.

Texans WR Nico Collins (hamstring) is "on track" to return when first eligible in Week 10, according to insider Aaron Wilson. Collins has been setback-free in his rehab so far, per Wilson, and has been clocked at 20 mph in his training. “It’s all very encouraging,” a source told Wilson. “Nico is doing well.” Collins was leading all WRs in PPR points through four healthy weeks and will return as a WR1 in fantasy lineups.

The Texans placed WR Nico Collins on IR. That knocks him out for at least the next four games vs. the Patriots, Packers, Colts, and Jets. Collins will be eligible to return for Week 10's game against the Lions. "While hamstrings can be tricky, the belief is that Nico Collins will be back sooner, rather than later," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport tweets.
