What happened: Cincinnati enters Week 2 at Houston with Joe Burrow trending the right way after early-week back tightness. Houston is also monitoring Nico Collins after a hamstring issue surfaced in practice, putting the Texans' receiving plans under pressure for Sunday.

Why it matters: Burrow's availability looms over a Bengals offense that still runs through Joe Burrow as Cincinnati chases an early AFC win. Any limitation for Collins would hit a Houston receiver group already dealing with absences for Tank Dell and Jayden Higgins.

What to watch: Friday practice and the final game-status designations should clarify whether Burrow carries any restriction into Sunday. Houston's receiver rotation is the key follow if Collins remains limited.
