Kyle Philips suffered an MCL injury in Saturday’s preseason win over Minnesota, per paulkuharsky.com, an injury that will reportedly keep him out “in the range of six weeks.”

If he wound up missing six weeks, according to the story, Philips would likely miss at least the first three games of the season, probably four. Philips burst on to the scene in Week 1 last year but then faded and played in only four games. Philips was slated to be the team's WR3 this season so this injury likely sets him back. Next up are Moore, Westbrook-Ikhine and McMath.

The story went on to say, the Titans will likely have to use two of their initial 53-man roster spots on injured receivers — Burks and Philips. And if the team needs to keep two healthy receivers as a result, that means two players at other positions will not survive the Aug. 29 final cut.

Titans WR Treylon Burks suffered an LCL sprain during practice today, sources say after the MRI. This is good news, as Burks should only miss a few weeks. A scare, but a solid result considering.

Burks' rapidly descending ADP should continue its downward trajectory, which could certainly make him a target if Hopkins doesn't become a complete target hog in this run-heavy offense. Consider Burks a WR5 target as he falls well into the double-digit rounds, with upside if he makes a complete return close to Week 1.

Treylon Burks just made a deep catch from Ryan Tannehill for a TD. Tumbled go the ground and got up limping. He walked off with help from the trainers who were holding his left knee.

Without getting too speculative, some immediate reactions have mentioned that Burks may miss "some time". Obviously that's not very descriptive, but we'll keep an eye out for something more definitive as the day rolls on. For now, it's probably for the best to pause on drafting Burks if you can help it until official word comes down about the severity of the injury.

Texans placed WR Nico Collins on injured reserve, ending his season.

The writing has been on the wall after Collins missed another week of practice. He was having a decent 2022 considering his surroundings and hopefully, he can build on that in Year 3 with a new quarterback. As it stands now, Chris Moore is an intriguing fantasy option, albeit in the Flex position. It's still up in the air if Brandin Cooks will make an impact if he were to actually take the field.

Veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks remains sidelined with a calf injury and isn’t expected to play. It’s trending toward wide receiver Nico Collins missing another game with a foot injury. Both players aren’t practicing. The Texans are set to go with Chris Moore, who caught a career-high 10 passes against Dallas, Phillip Dorsett, and Amari Rodgers as their primary wide receivers against Kansas City.

The Texans are a mess from a real and fantasy standpoint, with Dameon Pierce expected to miss multiple weeks and the offense running a hybrid two-QB system. Chris Moore is intriguing as a Flex play in Week 15, but the ceiling is capped.

Texans WR Brandin Cooks is out Sunday against the Browns due to a calf injury. First-round CB Derek Stingley, Jr. is also out due to a hamstring injury.

Most of the Texans offense is a stay-away for fantasy purposes, but Nico Collins has emerged into a consistent role, accruing five or more receptions and 45+ yards in three straight games. With Brandin Cooks out, he should operate as a low-end WR3 in Week 13.

WR Brandin Cooks was with the WR/TE group during the individual period of Thursday’s practice.

It looks like Cooks and the Texans have made up for the time being, and it will do neither party any good to see the wide receiver sitting on the bench. This undoubtedly steps on Nico Collins' toes, as it will be difficult for him to hit double-digit targets —as he did in Week 10— if Cooks is lining up opposite him. Both WRs can be considered high-floor/low-ceiling Flex plays against the Commanders in Week 11.

Texans WR Brandin Cooks’ status is up in the air for tonight’s game against the Eagles after multiple teams — including the #Rams and #Cowboys — couldn’t pull off a trade before Tuesday’s deadline.

With Nico Collins already being declared out, the Texans wide receiver group tonight looks like a practice squad group. Houston is now a 14-point underdog against the Eagles, and the line could continue to move with this added news. Dameon Pierce is the only fantasy-viable option on this team at the moment.

Tyler Johnson was claimed by the Houston Texans on Wednesday, one day after being cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Johnson lands in an interesting spot in Houston. The WRs are led by Cooks and Collins, but Johnson could easily slip right into the WR3 role once he's acclimated.
