With #Texans Pro Bowl wide receiver Nico Collins dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring injury, current expectation is this could sideline him for two games, including Sunday vs. #Bengals and next week on road vs. #Colts, per a league source. Fluid situation, but hamstrings are tricky. Avoided long-term injury, now it's got to heal.

Follow along with the latest NFL news ahead of Week 2.

The football? Yes, it arrived right on time before Collins even completed breaking open as Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud confidently delivered a spiral for a first down to his top downfield target. It was the kind of play that reinforces the confident foundation that Collins, a Pro Bowl wide receiver, and Stroud, a former NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, have already built together with timing, chemistry, friendship and trust during their first three years collaborating together.
