Nico Collins News
Saturday, October 17, 2:34 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is getting some help in the team's pass-catching corps, with Marvin Harrison Jr. added via trade and Tank Dell (knee) nearing a return. Even with more options in the passing game, though, Collins remains a strong WR1 as RotoBaller's No. 6 WR in Week 6. He and the Texans will take on the Jaguars in a divisional matchup in London early on Sunday morning, as they look to win a second straight game after getting their first win of the season last week over the Titans, 26-3. Collins had a quiet five catches for 56 yards in that contest, but he was much better in Week 4 with seven catches for 118 yards and two touchdowns against Dallas. He has elite upside and almost always gets heavy volume with plenty of chances to make plays. The Jaguars have been a top-10 matchup for wide receivers this year, and Collins has at least seven catches and at least 100 receiving yards in each of his last five games against his division foe.

Christian Watson News
Thursday, October 22, 8:13 AM
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said there is no concern about wide receiver Christian Watson's (ankle) status for the Week 7 game on the road this Sunday against the division-rival Detroit Lions, according to Weston Hodkiewicz of the team's official website. Watson was included on the Week 7 injury report and was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, but apparently the 27-year-old is fine and will be available this weekend as the Packers' offense looks to stay on a roll. Quarterback Jordan Love (back) and receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder) were also limited with injuries, but Green Bay is expected to have all of their top weapons while potentially getting starting running back Josh Jacobs back as well. Watson has stayed healthy through the first six weeks of 2026 and has been phenomenal for his fantasy managers, ranking third at the position in half-PPR scoring with 29 receptions on 48 targets for 538 yards and six touchdowns. Only Jaxon Smith-Njigba and CeeDee Lamb have more fantasy points than Watson.
