The Houston Texans received good news Friday as wide receiver Nico Collins is set to return Sunday from a hamstring injury that had sidelined him for two games.
Collins, regarded as Houston's top wide receiver, missed the team's previous two games while recovering from the injury.
His return gives the winless Texans back one of their most important offensive weapons as they look to turn their season around.
The team has not provided additional detail on the severity of the injury beyond confirming Collins' expected availability for Sunday's game.
Houston's coaching staff will make final decisions on Collins' workload once he is back on the field, as teams typically manage playing time carefully for players returning from soft-tissue injuries.
