"Both the Patriots and Texans released their respective injury reports following Wednesday's practice, with Houston wideout Nico Collins ruled out of practice due to a concussion. Both Collins and Gonzalez suffered concussions during their respective playoff games against the Steelers and Chargers in the wild-card round - with Collins needing to be carted off the field on Monday at Acrisure Stadium during that eventual 30-6 win in Pittsburgh."
"Gonzalez was also concussed on Sunday during New England's win over Los Angeles, but was back at practice as a limited participant on Wednesday - signaling that he's on the cusp of getting cleared for game action later this week. Collins - who also missed a game earlier this season due to a concussion - is a bit further along in the process, which could put his availability in doubt for Sunday's game in Foxborough."
Nico Collins was ruled out of Wednesday's practice with a concussion after being carted off Monday at Acrisure Stadium. Christian Gonzalez, also concussed in the wild-card round, returned to practice as a limited participant and appears close to clearance. Collins previously missed a game this season due to a concussion, and his recovery timeline could jeopardize his availability for Sunday's game in Foxborough. Collins serves as Houston's primary deep threat and has topped 1,000 receiving yards in three straight seasons, making his possible absence a significant loss. The Patriots received a boost as Khyiris Tonga practiced limitedly after a foot injury, while Morgan Moses and Thayer Munford Jr. did not practice and remain out with knee injuries.
