What It Means:

Collins and Brandin Cooks (calf) have both missed back-to-back practices as the Texans prepare for their Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore will likely be Houston's starting receivers if Collins and Cooks are unavailable.

numberFire's models give Collins a full projection of 7.0 targets, 4.0 receptions, and 51.3 yards in Week 14 while Cooks has a half projection of 3.3 targets. Per our nERD rankings, the Cowboys have the No. 1 overall defense and No. 1 pass defense this season, so the Texans are likely going to have more trouble than usual throwing the ball.
