Rookie wide receiver Nico Collins finally got his first TD of his career Saturday night.

While it may not technically count in the stat sheet, Nico Collins finally got the first touchdown of his young career. After being set up by a fumble recovery inside the Tampa Bay 20 yard line, all it took was a few short plays to get the ball to Collins.

It’s nice to see Collins find the endzone, and he even muscled through a few defenders at the goal line. Davis Mills had time and zinged it to the rookie pass-catcher out of the University of Michigan.

Nico Collins could be a deep fantasy football find from the Houston Texans

For those who play fantasy football, Collins is a guy to keep your eyes on as a late-round flier in drafts. If that doesn’t suit your fancy, then using your site’s “watch list” would be a great way to keep tabs on a potential replacement for your roster.

Especially for those in dynasty leagues, Collins is a unique addition to the roster. If Tyrod Taylor can develop a connection with Collins, then there should be no hesitation to add him to your roster.

Another fantasy find would be running back Mark Ingram. Most likely to be the team’s starter as of this writing, there are reasons why you should trust him. Unless Phillip Lindsay can unseat Ingram, this thing should be as solid as rock.

If your league includes individual defensive players (IDP), then Justin Reid and LB Zach Cunningham would be roster-worthy players. In IDP formats, there is a lot of guessing that goes on. These two are the exception.

Let’s hope that all of the options listed above become viable for all fantasy users and Houston Texans fans alike heading into the 2021 regular season.
