Nico Collins surprise addition to Texans inactive list in Week 8 against Lions

   

Nico Collins was injured in the Houston Texans Week 5 win over the Buffalo Bills. He ended up being placed on the IR and had to miss four games.

Sunday night was the first chance he had to make it back to the field and after practicing late in the week, the expectation was that he would play. 90 minutes before kickoff, we learned that wouldn't be the case.

Collins was listed among the inactive Texans, meaning he will miss his fifth game of the year. The good news is that they'll at least have Tank Dell, whow as questionable with a back injury.

With all that said, let's check out the injury report and inactive list for both teams.
