Nico Collins Is a Top 10 Receiver Even With a Backup Quarterback

Wednesday, November 19, 7:37 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has at least seven catches in each of his last three games and is coming off a big game last week against the Titans. He had nine catches on 10 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown, while working with Davis Mills since C.J. Stroud (concussion) is still sidelined. Stroud will be absent for a third straight week when the Texans host the Bills on Thursday Night Football, but Collins continues to get plenty of volume, drawing double-digit targets in each of his four games since the team's Week 6 Bye Week. Since he brings big play potential and also gets consistent work, Collins is ranked as the No. 7 WR in RotoBaller's ranking in a neutral matchup against Buffalo.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Clears 100-Yard Mark Again in Loss to Rams

Monday, November 17, 1:08 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued his historic season in a 21-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, catching nine of his 12 targets for 105 yards. Smith-Njigba failed to surpass the 100-yard mark last week against the Cardinals as he didn't play much in the second half, but he has cleared it in four of his past five games and seven of 10 games overall this season. The 23-year-old managed to post a dominant line despite quarterback Sam Darnold having his roughest game as a Seahawk with four interceptions. Smith-Njigba's floor for production is incredibly high, and the ceiling is also massive when Seattle plays in more high-scoring games, which we haven't seen many of this season. The superstar wideout has ascended to a new level this season and will rank as one of the best wide receivers in fantasy for Week 12 against the Titans.
