Nico Collins (toe) has been placed on IR.

Collins was injured in Week 2, and he will now miss at least the next three games. Look for Chris Conley and Anthony Miller to get extended action behind Brandin Cooks with Danny Amendola (hamstring) also banged up.

The Texans have selected Michigan wide receiver Nico Collins with the No. 89 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Collins—a 2020 opt-out—only totaled 78 receptions in three seasons for the Wolverines, but Houston is banking on some untapped potential in as a third-round pick. Although he is bigger (six-foot-four) and ran faster (4.43), Collins could have a role somewhat similar to JuJu Smith-Schuster as an intermediate target with big-play potential early in his career with the Texans. To begin his career, we would say Collins projects to be a better dynasty prospect than redraft factor.
