What happened: Collins was limited Wednesday, then missed practice Thursday and Friday. The ruling takes him out of Houston's Sunday game after the hamstring issue turned into a week-long downgrade.

Why it matters: Houston had been moving toward this call since Collins was limited Wednesday by the same hamstring issue. Locking in the downgrade before the weekend removes one of the Texans' biggest lineup questions heading into kickoff.

What to watch: Watch Houston's final inactive list and receiving rotation Sunday. The Texans' next practice report will show whether Collins has a chance to return the following week.
