Houston receiver Nico Collins will miss Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a hamstring injury.

Collins, who is in his sixth season, has had at least 1,000 yards receiving in each of the last three seasons.

Houston will be without receiver Nico Collins for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a hamstring injury. The injury occurred during Wednesday's practice, and Collins did not take part in practice sessions on Thursday and Friday before being ruled out. In his sixth season, Collins has accumulated over 1,000 receiving yards in each of the past three campaigns.

He contributed with seven catches for 75 yards and a touchdown in Houston's opening defeat against Buffalo. Team offensive coordinator Nick Caley expressed confidence in the team's ability to adapt if Collins cannot play, stating that the offense has trust in multiple players and that quarterback C.J. Stroud has effectively distributed the ball to various receivers.

Additionally, starting guard Ed Ingram, defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, and linebacker Jake Hummel were also listed as out for the Texans on Friday due to groin and knee injuries, respectively.
