Nico Collins Looks To Emerge As Top WR In Week 1

Nico Collins Looks To Emerge As Top WR In Week 1

one year ago

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has supposedly developed a strong connection with rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud this offseason. That will be put to the test in Week 1 against the Baltimore Ravens. The good news for Collins is that Baltimore might be without top cornerback Marlon Humphrey. So he should have better opportunities on offense to get open. After the departure of veteran Brandin Cooks, the 24-year-old wideout will have the chance to lead the team in targets and receptions in 2023. With a rookie quarterback under center, though, Collins is better served as a low-end flex play in Week 1.
