Nico Collins News
Friday, October 2, 12:13 PM
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) is off the injury report and will play in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, per DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Collins has missed Houston's last two games with a hamstring injury, but he practiced in full on Friday and is set to return against Dallas. The 27-year-old played well in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills, recording seven catches for 75 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. Collins was also very productive when healthy in 2025, hauling in 71 receptions for 1,117 yards and six touchdowns on 120 targets across 15 games. Now that he's active, Collins profiles as the clear number one option in the Houston passing game and should be considered a must-start wide receiver for fantasy managers in a favorable matchup against Dallas.

Zay Flowers News
Friday, October 2, 12:26 PM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable to play in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Flowers practiced in full on Wednesday and Thursday, but he was downgraded to limited on Friday and will now carry an injury designation into the weekend. The 26-year-old injured his hamstring in Week 1 and missed Week 2 as a result. While Flowers returned for Baltimore's Week 3 win over the Dallas Cowboys, he was on a snap count. If Flowers is active in Week 4, it seems likely that Baltimore would continue to be cautious with his workload. Flowers has been remarkably productive despite the nagging injury, recording 10 catches for 234 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets across two games. He remains a must-start wide receiver if active, but fantasy managers may want to downgrade their expectations slightly for Week 4.
