Nico Collins Setback-Free In His Recovery

Wednesday, October 23, 12:10 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring), who is currently on Injured Reserve with a hamstring injury, is doing well in his recovery and hasn't had any setbacks, according to sources. Collins will have to miss at least two more games, but there is optimism that his original three- to four-week timetable is on track. The earliest he'll be eligible to come off IR and play will be on Nov. 10 at home in Week 10 against the Detroit Lions. The 25-year-old was among the league's leading receivers at the time of his injury, so he obviously needs to be stashed by all fantasy managers for a couple more weeks. Hopefully Collins can pick up where he left off when he's back after catching 32 of 45 targets for 567 yards and three touchdowns in five games played. For another two weeks, Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell will have higher ceilings with Collins sidelined.

Puka Nacua Breaks Century Mark In First Game Back

Friday, October 25, 9:46 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua returned in a big way on Thursday night to help the team beat the Minnesota Vikings by a score of 30-20. While he may not have made a trip to the end zone, Nacua finished with seven receptions for 106 yards on nine targets and received two carries for five yards. Right away, even with Cooper Kupp back in the fold, Nacua was Matthew Stafford's top target. He didn't show many signs of rust or lingering pain, so Nacua should be back in fantasy lineups moving forward if he wasn't already.
