The Steelers have faced some big-name wide receivers this year, but Nico Collins will be a challenge for the secondary. CB Joey Porter Jr. believes his unit is up for the challenge, even while hinting that it’s not his alone. Making the Pro Bowl for the second straight year, Collins is the Texans’ primary receiving threat by a wide margin.
At 6-4, 222 pounds, Collins will give the Steelers’ secondary a rare challenge. They have had some practice, however, against Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. This year, they also faced Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Zay Flowers, Justin Jefferson, and others.
