Houston Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said Nico Collins and Ed Ingram could return Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys after sitting out the previous two games. The team is hopeful both will be ready for the Week 4 matchup.
Collins, a Pro Bowl wide receiver and three-time 1,000-yard receiver, has been absent as Houston has had difficulty generating outside production. Dalton Schultz has been the primary exception. Xavier Hutchinson paced the Texans with nine receptions totaling 120 yards across the last two games. In one game against the Buffalo Bills, Collins had seven catches, 75 yards and a touchdown.
The offensive line has used Wyatt Teller at right guard while Ingram has been out. Houston has produced 130 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown in its two most recent games. Jadeveon Clowney, a defensive end who has missed two contests with a knee injury, is still considered week-to-week.
Even without players on the edge, Houston had five sacks and caused two fumbles in its previous game. The matchup is set for noon at Reliant Stadium. Sports.yahoo.com reported the update Sept. 28, 2026.
