Texans' Injury Challenges Before Lions Game

News summary

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is poised for a potential return against the Detroit Lions after being designated to practice following a four-week stint on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury. Collins, who led the NFL in receiving yards with 567 before his injury during Week 5, has passed all necessary tests and regained speed and mobility, signaling readiness to play. Despite his absence, the Texans have maintained a 6-3 record but have seen a decline in their passing game, significantly impacting quarterback C.J. Stroud's performance. The Texans have been struggling with additional injuries, including Stefon Diggs' season-ending ACL tear, further highlighting the importance of Collins' return to bolster the team's offense. Collins' participation in Sunday's primetime game remains uncertain, with a decision expected shortly before the game. Houston's coach DeMeco Ryans has expressed optimism about Collins' recovery, noting it is a matter of when, not if, he will be activated.
