Texans Designate WR Nico Collins for Return from Injured Reserve

The standout receiver begins a 21-day practice window after recovering from a hamstring injury, but his status for the upcoming game remains uncertain.

Nico Collins, who led the NFL in receiving yards before his injury, has been designated to return to practice after a four-game absence.
The Texans have a 21-day window to activate Collins to the 53-man roster, or he will miss the remainder of the season.
Collins' return is crucial for Houston, as the team's offense has struggled in his absence, compounded by the season-ending injury to Stefon Diggs.
Collins was listed as a limited participant in practice and is questionable for the Texans' upcoming game against the Detroit Lions.
Guard Kenyon Green was placed on injured reserve with a dislocated shoulder, further impacting the Texans' offensive line.
