Ja'Marr Chase News
Sunday, September 27, 8:08 PM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase was once again the team's leading receiver in the 30-27 Week 3 loss on the road to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, catching nine of his 12 targets for 98 yards and a touchdown. It was a slow start to the season for Chase, as he caught just two passes for 12 yards in the season-opening win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But he had seven catches on nine targets for 75 yards and his first two touchdowns of the year in the Week 2 victory over the Houston Texans. That is now three touchdowns in the last two games for Chase, who is an absolute must-start each and every week. Chase's nine catches were three more than Tee Higgins, and his 12 targets were five more than Higgins. The 26-year-old All-Pro will have a strong chance to make it three straight weeks with a trip to the end zone when the Bengals face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars next Sunday in Week 4.

Nico Collins News
Friday, October 2, 12:13 PM
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) is off the injury report and will play in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, per DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Collins has missed Houston's last two games with a hamstring injury, but he practiced in full on Friday and is set to return against Dallas. The 27-year-old played well in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills, recording seven catches for 75 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. Collins was also very productive when healthy in 2025, hauling in 71 receptions for 1,117 yards and six touchdowns on 120 targets across 15 games. Now that he's active, Collins profiles as the clear number one option in the Houston passing game and should be considered a must-start wide receiver for fantasy managers in a favorable matchup against Dallas.
