Adam Schefter: Nico Collins Injury Puts Texans WR's Week 2 Status 'in Jeopardy'
Nico Collins was limited with a hamstring injury while Jadeveon Clowney did not practice, and Houston listed three players out on Wednesday.
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a hamstring injury, the team's first injury report for Week 2.
Pro Bowler Nico Collins recorded seven receptions for 75 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Buffalo Bills, serving as the team's leading receiver.
Defensive end Jadeveon Clowney and linebacker Jake Hummel did not participate Wednesday, dealing with knee and groin injuries respectively, while tight end Dalton Schultz sat out for rest.
Collins is undergoing further testing to determine the severity of his hamstring injury, leaving his availability for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals uncertain.
Should Collins be unavailable against the Bengals, the Texans will deploy receivers Kayshon Boutte and Xavier Hutchinson, who combined for four receptions and 53 yards in Week 1.
