Houston Texans receiver Nico Collins is putting in the necessary work to take the next step in his second season in the NFL.
According to Hall-of-Fame sportswriter John McClain, the former 2021 third-round pick from Michigan spent time with receivers coach and pass game coordinator Ben McDaniels after organized team activities on June 1 at Houston Methodist Training Center. McClain says Collins worked on getting off the line.
Collins battled availability and consistency issues in his first season. The 6-4, 215-pound wideout started in eight of 14 games and caught 33 passes for 446 yards and a touchdown. Nevertheless Collins flashed promise of what he could become for Houston throughout the course of his rookie contract.
