Nico Collins bulldozed his way to his first touchdown of 2024 with a 28-yard reception in the first quarter Sunday night. Houston's opening touchdown in a 19-13 home victory showcased Collins' size and strength at 6-foot-4 and nearly 230 pounds. A pair of later receptions flexed his growing mind meld with quarterback C.J. Stroud.
The Texans' dynamic duo connected for both an 18-yard and a 16-yard reception in the second quarter of Sunday's contest, a game in which Collins led all wideouts in both catches (eight) and receiving yards (135). The chunk plays were no ordinary strikes.
