Texans dealt huge blow with Nico Collins played on Injured Reserve
The Houston Texans are riding high with their 4-1 record, which included a thrilling win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. However, some injury adversity has arrived for this team when it comes to one of their best playmakers.
On Wednesday, it was announced that star wideout Nico Collins is being placed on Injured Reserve with a hamstring issue. Just like that, C.J. Stroud will be without his top wideout for the next four games.

With Collins out, the Texans will rely on Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell to step their game up for the aerial attack. Through five weeks, Dell leads the NFL with his 567 receiving yards. There's no question Stroud and Co. are going to miss having him out on the field.
