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

Nico Collins has career day against Denver

Nico Collins caught 9-of-12 targets for 191 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 22-17 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

In what could have been a game in which he struggled, especially with the absence of Tank Dell, Collins stepped up in a big way against Denver. He led the Texans in receiving by far with his 12 targets. No one else had more than four. He was also the only Texan to catch more than three passes. His 191 yards were a career-high. It was just an all-around incredible day for the young wideout. He'll look to keep the momentum going next week against the Jets. He may find it tougher sledding there, but with a talent like C.J. Stroud throwing him the ball as Houston's primary target with Tank Dell on IR, he should see plenty of volume moving forward. He's a must-start in fantasy.
