Expert
Andrew Erickson FantasyPros	Nico Collins continued his run as Houston's unquestioned WR1 in 2025, posting his third 1,000-yard season in the last four years while finishing as a top-10 fantasy receiver once again. Despite battling injuries, Collins remained highly efficient and continued to dominate targets and red-zone usage in the Texans offense. Interestingly, his production actually improved without C.J. Stroud under center, though a bounce-back season from the young QB would elevate Collins' ceiling even further. At worst, Collins profiles as a reliable fantasy WR1/WR2 hybrid with one of the strongest WR efficiency profiles in the NFL.
