Texans star wide receiver carted off after concussion check

The Houston Texans offense has a problem.

It has been a struggle on offense for Houston in their wild-card weekend matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on ‘Monday Night Football,’ who only managed seven points through three quarters. The Texans defense has done the rest, holding Pittsburgh to only six points in that same time.

Yet the inefficiency of C.J. Stroud has been the headline. Now he’ll have to move forward without Nico Collins, who was carted to the locker room to be evaluated for a concussion.

The receiver hit his head on the field after trying to collect a pass from the quarterback over the middle of the field.

Collins exited with just three catches for 21 yards, despite receiving seven targets.

Here’s the latest on Collins.
