Texans coach DeMeco Ryans has Nico Collins update after missing Bengals game
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins did not play during Sunday’s loss against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Houston Texans coach Demeco Ryans updated wide receiver Nico Collins following his absence from the team's Week 2 game against the Bengals. Collins suffered a Grade 1 hamstring strain during practice, ruling him out of the matchup. The Texans' offensive struggles were evident as they lost 20-6 to Cincinnati. Struggling to convert zone opportunities, the Texans struggled to finish drives and only managed 18 rushing yards from their backs.
Quarterback C.J. Stroud, without Collins' reliable presence, faced a challenging task, going 5-for-17 on third downs. With Collins still recovering, the team is uncertain about his return date, but he is not expected to play in the upcoming Week 3 game against the Indianapolis Colts. Collins' absence has significantly impacted the Texans' offensive performance, and his return will be crucial for the team to avoid another disappointing season.
