Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins was on the path to a record-setting season before being placed on the injured reserve in Week 6 because of a hamstring issue.
He still could have a career year, but leading the NFL in receiving yards might be challenging should he miss more than four games.
As of this moment, Collins’ dominance through five games has him still up top of the leaderboards entering Houston’s Week 8 return home against the Colts. Cincinnati Bengals Ja’Maar once again had another strong week against the Cleveland, but was it enough to dethrone the fourth-year Houston phenom after he departed Week 5’s win over the Buffalo Bills?
Usually, we break down the top 10 receiving performances per week because Collins is featured. With him being out, we’ll still focus on Tank Dell and Stefon Diggs, but neither made the top 10 following Houston’s victory in Foxborough.
For now, here’s a list of how close other receivers are to where Collins resides while entering Week 8?
