Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins caught three of nine targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in a 20-19 loss against Tampa Bay on Monday night. Collins finished Houston's first drive with a beautiful catch on a fade ball for a 29-yard touchdown. It was an otherwise frustrating night for the star receiver, catching only two of his next eight targets for 23 yards. The Houston offense ran only 46 plays in the game, which limited the production of everyone, but Collins and Stroud were consistently just off on a couple of occasions. He demanded 39% of the team's targets, including three end zone targets, so better days should be ahead for Collins. He draws a matchup against a Jacksonville defense that just allowed Ja'Ja'Marrr Chase to go for 165 yards and a touchdown in Week 2. He could be seen as a buy-low in trades this week.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens participated in 92% (56) of the team's snaps during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1, the exact figure as star teammate CeeDee Lamb. The fourth-year pro didn't garner the same lofty target total Lamb drew (13), placing third on the team behind tight end Jake Ferguson, who had six (four). However, Pickens was out there for darn-near every snap and drew a long pass interference penalty. While quarterback Dak Prescott couldn't connect with his new wideout on any deep targets, there will be plenty more opportunities for the duo to do so. Furthermore, Lamb should draw extra coverage frequently, giving Pickens plenty of one-on-one opportunities on the outside. He's a WR3 with high-end WR2 upside.
