Nico Collins Week 14 Outlook - Texans at Jets

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 7th 2023, 1:05pm EST

After last week's blow-up game, Collins has climbed to WR9 in fantasy points per game while ranking 23rd in red zone targets (eight red zone targets in his last five games). Last week, Collins had a 42.9% target share, a 56.9% air-yard share, 6.59 YPRR, and a 55% first-read share. Those are elite numbers, no matter how you slice them. Overall, Collins has a 22.3% target share, a 30.6% air-yard share, 3.20 YPRR, and a 29.4% first-read share. Since Week 8, New York has operated with the seventh-highest rate of two high (53.4%). Against two-high, Collins has had 2.40 YPRR and a 27.2% first-read share. Collins will have to roll up his sleeves again this week against a strong secondary. Since Week 8, the Jets have allowed the fewest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. With Tank Dell out, Collins should see an elite workload again this week, which can help him overcome the brutal matchup. Week 14 Positional Value: WR1
