If it weren't bad enough that the Houston Texans lost to the Seattle Seahawks this past Monday night and fell to 2-4 on the season, the in-game loss of Nico Collins, Houston's leading receiver each of the last two seasons, felt like a particularly cruel blow.
Collins had been largely ineffective against Seattle, being held to four receptions for just 27 yards in the first three quarters of the game before he exited early in the 4th quarter following an incomplete pass that ended with the back of Collins' helmet colliding with the turf along the sideline.
