Teams Have Checked in on Nico Collins, Trade Remains "Unlikely"

Thursday, April 23, 4:05 PM

According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, several teams have checked in on the status of Houston Texans' top wide receiver Nico Collins. Schultz noted that many teams in the league believe Collins is seeking a contract adjustment, which could open the door to a trade. However, at this time, a trade remains "highly unlikely." Collins has spent his entire NFL career with the Houston Texans since joining them in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Michigan. After a slow start to his career, the wideout turned in a massive Year 3 breakout when he totaled 1,297 yards with a career-best eight touchdowns. In 2025, Collins caught 71 passes, the second-most of his career, for 1,117 yards and six scores. With Houston, Collins figures to remain the focal point of the passing attack and remain a low-end WR1 for fantasy in the upcoming campaign.

Drake London's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Quarterback Questions in Atlanta

Sunday, April 19, 10:47 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London ran into some injury issues with his knee that caused him to miss time down the stretch of the 2025 season. Still, the 24-year-old was highly productive across the 12 games he was active for, recording 68 receptions for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on a whopping 112 targets. London is averaging 9.3 targets per game over the past two seasons and profiles as the clear number one pass-catcher in Atlanta once again in 2026. However, the Falcons' ongoing issues at the quarterback position continue to limit London's upside. Atlanta QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) is coming off a torn ACL and was largely ineffective when healthy in 2025, throwing for 1,982 yards and nine touchdowns across nine games. The Falcons signed veteran signal-caller Tua Tagovailoa in free agency, but the 28-year-old threw 15 interceptions and averaged under seven yards per pass attempt across 14 games with the Miami Dolphins in 2025. London remains a dynasty WR1, but he may struggle to realize his full potential until the Falcons solve the quarterback position.
