Nico Collins Week 11 Outlook - Texans at Cowboys

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Nov 14th 2024, 8:32am EST

Houston Texans' wide receiver Nico Collins has been out since Week 5 due to a hamstring injury. Collins is expected to return in Week 11 when Houston faces the Dallas Cowboys. Though there is some risk associated with trusting players coming off a significant layoff, there is a lot to like about Collins' Week 11 prospects. Dallas ranks 31st in EPA and 29th in DVOA against opposing passing attacks this season. Collins earned 43 targets (10.8 per game) in Houston's first four games of the season en route to leading all wide receivers in fantasy points over the first month of the 2024 season. If he gets that level of volume this week, he could put up monster numbers against the Cowboys. Since this game is on Monday night, fantasy managers will need to ensure Collins' availability for this game. Assuming there are no setbacks, Collins should pick up right where he left off on Monday night.
