Nico Collins feels there’s still more to prove after contract extension
Nico Collins said he feels there’s still more to prove after his contract extension.
Fantasy Impact
Collins landed a three-year extension with the Colts earlier in the week, but it won’t stop him from continuing to work to get better. “This is something I’ve been wishing for since I was a little kid,” Collins said. “I’ve been playing football since I was five or six years old. The dream is to make it to the league and get that second contract. God has blessed me with the opportunity. And, now, I got it. I feel like, now, it’s motivation. I feel like there’s more to be proved.” Collins caught 80 passes for 1,297 yards and eight touchdowns last season, and will now be in the wide receiver room with Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell.

Pat Freiermuth: Arthur Smith’s offense ‘very exciting’ for tight ends
Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth called Arthur Smith’s offense “very exciting” for tight ends.
Fantasy Impact
While Smith called the plays for the Falcons, more than a third of their passes went to tight ends. However, fantasy managers who rostered Kyle Pitts are likely aware of the usage Jonnu Smith also saw. “With Arthur here, there’s a lot of stuff for the tight ends, situations where you want to make those plays,” Freiermuth said. “I’m excited for that. I’m ready to roll.” It may be tough for some to trust this situation after what happened in Atlanta with Smith, but Freiermuth should remain the lead tight end for the Steelers.
