After a two-week hiatus, Nico Collins is officially off the Texans' injury report and will return in Week 4. The last time Collins returned from a hamstring injury, back in 2024, his fantasy production initially struggled, as he scored roughly 50% below his in-season average in his first game back.

STACKED’s take

Collins cleared from injury report; expect modest Week 4 dip, then normal production.

Nico Collins is officially off the Texans' injury report and will return in Week 4 after a two-week hiatus from a hamstring injury. The last time Collins returned from a hamstring injury in 2024, his fantasy production initially struggled, scoring roughly 50% below his in-season average in his first game back. However, hamstring strains have not been a 'fantasy-limiting injury' for NFL wide receivers overall. The biggest concerns are typically the time missed and a moderate risk of re-injury. Once a receiver is healthy enough to return, the data does not suggest a significant or consistent decline in fantasy production.
