Expert Note
View More NotesConsidering how terrible the Texans' offense were over their last few games of 2025, it's surprising that they are viewed as a sneaky contending team. That said, their defense was truly exceptional and could carry any league-average offence on a playoff run. Therefore, we are all hoping that C.J. Stroud can at least be functional in 2026. If he is, then Nico Collins is set up for a massive season. As one of the best outside receivers in the league and a clear top target on his team, Collins' target share should be incredibly safe each week. Despite their struggles last season, Collins was still the WR9 on the team. Starting their season against the Bills offense is a great test for this defense and will likely force Stroud and company to put points on the board. This sets the table for Collins to start the season with a bang.

Fantasy Impact
It is too early to be concerned for Collins, but it's something to monitor nonetheless heading into minicamp.
