Kansas City #Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo reveals concern covering Houston #Texans wide receiver Nico Collins | @EdEastonJr

Trent McDuffie previewed his upcoming showdown with Texans wide receiver Nico Collins. How did McDuffie fare in the first matchup?

After a slow start, Texans receiver Nico Collins made the big catches to spark Houston to a 32-12 win and set team record for playoffs.

After a quiet first quarter, Collins exploded to give Houston momentum in the second quarter. After C.J. Stroud found Xavier Hutchinson for a 34-yard pickup, Collins won his one-on-one battle against Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton in man coverage and propelled his way into Los Angeles’ red zone for a 37-yard gain.

The Texans are up 7-6 over the Los Angeles Chargers in the wild-card round following a Nico Collins 13-yard touchdown pass from C.J. Stroud with just under a minute remaining in the first quarter.

And Collins surpassed former Texans Pro Bowl wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins’ franchise playoff receiving yardage record in the process, catching seven passes for 122 yards and one score on eight targets. Hopkins had 118 yards in a 2019 divisional round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins cracked the 1,000-yard mark in the regular season when he caught a 2-yard touchdown on Sunday in Week 18 at Tennessee.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins refuses to go down on a 41-yard reception from quarterback C.J. Stroud.

If the Texans beat the Chiefs, it will be because of Nico Collins not CJ Stroud especially after his dominant Wild Card performance.

The No. 4 seed Houston Texans are moving on to this weekend's divisional-round matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs following a wild-card round win over the No. 5 seed Los Angeles Chargers this past Saturday.
