Nico Collins injury status: Should Fantasy managers be concerned about Texans WR for Week 13 Fantasy Football

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins is on the injury report for the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Texans visit the Jaguars at EverBank Stadium to try and bounce back after a Week 12 defeat against the Tennessee Titans.

Losing Collins would be a major blow for the team, especially after they lost Stefon Diggs to a season-ending injury. Nico and Tank Dell have taken over as the 1-2 punch for the Texans, but inconsistencies have prevented the team from a better record.

Nico Collins injury: Is Texans star WR playing this week?

Nico Collins had limited participation and was rested ahead of this matchup. Despite appearing on the injury report, he doesn't have a designation for this game and should be able to play.

Collins and Dell should do well against Jacksonville, a team that allows 25.45 fantasy points to wide receivers. The Lions racked up 52 in Week 11, including 21 receptions for 348 yards and three touchdowns.

Nico Collins is ranked as the WR4 ahead of Week 13 by ESPN. He's projected to get six receptions on nine targets, racking up 96 receiving yards for a production of 18.16 fantasy points.

The last time Collins faced this team, he caught 12 passes on 15 targets, tallying 151 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. The Texans held onto a 24-20 win to improve to 3-1 at the time, while the Jaguars lost their fourth consecutive game.

Houston Texans injury report for Week 12

Besides Nico Collins, the Houston Texans have another wide receiver on the injury report. Xavier Hutchinson was a limited participant in each of the three practice sessions this week and was labeled as questionable for this game.

Will Anderson Jr. (angle), Denico Autry (knee), Foley Fatukasi (foot), Jalen Pitre (shoulder), Azeez All-Shair (knee), Blake Fisher (concussion) and Jimmy Ward were also featured on the report. Fatukasi and Pitre were ruled out for this match while the rest didn't get any designation.

The Texans have won only one of their last four matchups (34-10 against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 11) and they need to start winning games to secure a spot in the playoff and enter the big party in the best possible shape.

Collins has taken over after Stefon Diggs went down with an injury and he's set to play great again on Sunday.
