"The rookie seventh-round pick had played all of five snaps from scrimmage in Weeks 7, 8 and 16 when Cade Otton's knee injury afforded him additional opportunity over the last two regular-season games. Culp played 19 and 16 snaps in Weeks 17 and 18, respectively, while operating as a complementary tight end alongside Payne Durham, and he generated all of his stats during that pair of contests. Culp displayed some downfield prowess during that span by tallying two receptions of 20-plus yards among his five grabs, and he should have plenty of opportunity this offseason and in training camp to make a case for more playing time as he heads into the second year of his rookie contract in 2025."

"Collins is entering his fifth NFL season having established himself as one of the league's top receivers over the last two years. After breaking out with an 80-1,297-8 receiving line in 15 games in 2023, Collins posted a 68-1,006-7 line in 12 games last season. He was a top-10 fantasy WR on a per-game basis in both seasons. The missed games are a concern (he's missed at least two games in all four seasons), but he offsets that with elite play (top 3 in YPRR two years in a row). With Stefon Diggs gone and Tank Dell uncertain to play in 2025, Collins is ticketed for massive usage as C.J. Stroud's clear No. 1 target. He's a solid WR1 option in fantasy."


"Collins' restructure comes in the form of his $13.5 million base salary being converted into a signing bonus. The move provides Houston some additional flexibility ahead of the official start of free agency next week. Collins dealt with injuries that forced him to miss five games in 2024, but he nonetheless managed to finish the campaign with an impressive 68-1,006-7 receiving line on 99 targets across 12 appearances during the regular season. With Stefon Diggs (knee) potentially moving on in free agency and with Tank Dell (knee) in danger of missing a substantial portion of the upcoming season, Collins looks locked in atop the depth chart as C.J. Stroud's clear No. 1 target."
