When the Kansas City Chiefs’ defense takes the field against the Houston Texans in the Divisional round, a lot of focus will be on wide receiver Nico Collins.
He is the primary target for quarterback C.J. Stroud — especially with wide receivers Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell suffering season-ending injuries at different times this year. In the Wild Card win over the Los Angeles Chargers, the Texans’ offense had one of its most productive games of the season; Collins was the catalyst with 122 yards and a touchdown.
Chiefs’ defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo has always prepared his coverage unit to account for Collins.
