Nico Collins Prop Bets
Here are Nico Collins’ current prop bet lines at DraftKings Sportsbook: o/u 6.5 receptions and o/u 89.5 receiving yards. Collins is +140 to score a touchdown, +1000 to score 2+ touchdowns and +850 to score the first touchdown of the game.
Nico Collins is having a monster season for the Texans. He has missed five games this season due to injury but he leads the NFL in receiving yards per game with 104.0 yards per game. Only Collins and Ja’Marr Chase are averaging over 100 receiving yards per game this season. Collins was supposed to be a part of a loaded wide receiver group from Houston but due to a season-ending injury to Stefon Diggs, Collins has to be the main man for C.J. Stroud. Other than missing time with injury, he has been that guy for Stroud when on the field.
The Dolphins are 16th in the NFL in defensive EPA/pass and 25th in defensive dropback success rate. Teams have been able to pass against the Dolphins all season and the Texans should have a really good game plan. Houston is coming off of its bye week and it came at a really good time for the Texans. They are atop the AFC South by a couple of games but had not been playing great leading into the bye week. They have had time to figure things out and prepare for this important Miami game in their home stadium.
My favorite bet for Collins in this game is for him to go over his longest reception prop of 29.5 yards. Collins has gone over this number in four straight games, including all three games since returning from injury. Overall, Collins has cleared this number in six out of eight games this season. During his past four games, Collins is averaging a longest reception of 49 yards. He should continue to be the deep shot threat for Houston and after a bye week, he and Stroud should have their timing down perfectly.
Pick: Nico Collins Longest Reception o29.5 Yards (-110)
