Just In: Texans’ WR shocks fans by Departing After Heated Rift With Head Coach DeMeco Ryans over….Read more

The Houston Texans’ season is still being significantly impacted by injuries of a significant nature. The team now has a record of 6-3 and will be playing the Detroit Lions, who have a record of 7-1, at NRG Stadium.

The team’s wide receiver room is rather crowded, despite the fact that they will be missing out on the services of great defensive end Will Anderson Jr. Having to cope with injuries is not an ideal situation, especially considering that star quarterback C.J. Stroud requires assistance from both his offensive line and receivers.

Considering that Stefon Diggs has suffered an anterior cruciate ligament tear, it is critical that the remaining members of the position group are in good shape and ready to play. On Friday, the status of Nico Collins and Tank Dell was placed in the “questionable” status category.

An update on the injuries sustained by the two great receivers was provided by Ian Rapoport during the weekend. “Texans WR Tank Dell, dealing with a back injury, is expected to play tonight,” Rapoport said to reporters. “Despite just one day of practice, Nico Collins is questionable and a game-time decision.”

Having Dell back in action is reassuring, and if Collins were to return to action, it would be a significant boost to the offense. Prior to being placed on Injured Reserve, Collins was the leading receiver in the league by a significant margin.

Because the attack of the Detroit Lions is so good, the Texans will not only have to try to stop it, but they will also have to try to equal it offensively. To achieve success in this endeavor, it will be necessary to achieve success both on the ground and in the air.
