BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: The Houston Texans receiving corps continues to play an injury version of musical chairs, as it appears Nico Collins is set to return to the lineup in Week 11, while Noah Brown is expected to be sidelined with a knee issue. After missing Houston's thrilling Week 10 victory over the Bengals with a calf problem, Collins got in two limited practice sessions this week before being listed as a full participant on Friday.

Prior to last week's absence, Collins was in the midst of a legit breakout campaign. He returns to this C.J. Stroud-led passing attack as the overall fantasy WR16 (Half PPR) through the first 10 weeks of 2023. The third-year wideout has already surpassed his previous career high for receiving yards in a season and will look to add to his current tally of 631 yards against the Arizona Cardinals.
It's a prime spot for Collins, as the Cardinals' secondary has put up little fight against opposing receivers in 2023. Arizona currently grades out dead last in the NFL with an eye-popping 71.8% catch rate allowed to the WR position. Assuming he's healthy, Collins is a locked-in fantasy starter in this trending Texans passing attack.
